    An ideal route for runners living in Westerland who want to jog through nature without driving. After just a few minutes along the Südwäldchen, you reach the wide dune landscape, through which you run over a small rise to the beach access at the Strandoase. Strengthened by the sea view, you return on a section of the Syltlauf that leads back to the Südwäldchen. Through one of the few forests on the island, along a small pond, you reach the Sylt Stadium again and thus the starting point.

    Author’s recommendation

    If you have no problem walking in the sand, you can take the outgoing route directly on the beach. However, Sylts highest beach stairs must be climbed. Please carry your guest card. This is checked at the beach accesses.

    Dünen Camping Sylt in Westerland

    Roadbook

    From the starting point, you run on the foot and cycle path that runs directly between the Aquarium and Sylt Stadium. Follow this path southwards, past the Südwäldchen and the campsite. Behind the Südwäldchen, turn left over the parking lot towards the main road. Run on the foot and cycle path for about 300 meters until a narrow dune path branches off to the right. Use this to run through the beautiful dune landscape. Follow this path straight ahead without turning, and you will reach a parking lot from where a wooden boardwalk leads to the beach. Use this for a view "over the edge." Turn around again at the sea, run back on the wooden boardwalk, and then keep right at the path junction at the parking lot so that you reach the main road again via a parking lot and the foot and cycle path. Follow this along Süderstraße and use the second entrance into the Südwäldchen. This path will then lead you back to Sylt Stadium, from where you only have a few meters left, running on the foot and cycle path known from the beginning towards the starting point and finish.
