Who does not know it, the famous lighthouse of East Frisia. A must see when vacationing in the area. Always worth seeing for me when I'm there.

The lighthouse can be seen from a distance, and the route can also be easily covered by bike. Along the way, you pass a small inland body of water where you can observe birds from a small wooden hut.

Freshly arrived in Greetsiel, our way leads over the dike to the lighthouse.

The Pilsumer lighthouse is my favorite lighthouse. 🤩

From here you can marvel at the sunset over the Wadden Sea. 🌅
