    The beach promenade, which is partly asphalted or paved and partly consists of a wooden boardwalk, is ideal for a jogging route with a view of the sea. This way, you can enjoy the North Sea without the strain of running in the sand. Quiet and wind-protected paths behind the dunes complete the route parallel to the beach promenade. It can be reached from anywhere in Westerland within a few minutes and can easily be extended north or south.

    Author’s recommendation

    The best time for this route is in the morning or around dinner time. Then the promenade is nice and quiet!

    Please carry your guest card. It is checked at the beach accesses.

    Roadbook

    The jogging route starts at the Schützenplatz parking lot with the biggest challenge of the route: climbing the Himmelsleiter, the island's highest beach staircase at 26m. From the top, there is a wonderful view of the beach. On the wooden boardwalk directly at the beach, the route continues along the beach over the bathing area, where the paved section of the beach promenade begins, up to Brandenburger beach, where it returns to a wooden boardwalk. This leads to the S-Point restaurant. Here, farewell is taken from the beach via a fairly high beach staircase. The now reached hiking and cycling path runs along Sylt roses and is protected by dunes, going back along Strand- and Friedrichstraße to Schützenplatz.
