Discover the region

Geographically, Hinte, Aurich is located between the North Sea and the moors of East Frisia. The region is known for its characteristic Warfen hills and the unique flora and fauna of the Wadden Sea.

Tourists should definitely visit Lütetsburg Castle, which is considered one of the most beautiful castles in Germany. The historic old town of Aurich with its picturesque half-timbered houses is also worth a visit.

For cultural highlights, we recommend the "Jazz Club" cultural centre or the "Kunsthaus", where exhibitions of contemporary art are held regularly. Another highlight are the traditional East Frisian tea rooms, which offer a cosy atmosphere and serve typical East Frisian pastries.

Outdoor enthusiasts can explore the surroundings on numerous cycling and hiking trails or go swimming in the nearby bathing lake. In winter, the skiing area in Norden-Norddeich is a great place for skiing and snowboarding.

If it should rain, a visit to the "Ostfriesisches Landesmuseum" (East Frisian State Museum) or the indoor playground "Jump House" is worthwhile.

It is particularly beautiful in Hinte during springtime, when thousands of crocuses transform the landscape into a colourful sea of blossoms. In summer, the numerous beaches of the North Sea as well as the annual "Ostfriesland Festival" attract visitors. Autumn offers a breathtaking backdrop due to the play of colours in nature and in winter you can enjoy regional specialities at the Christmas markets.

All in all, Hinte, Aurich is definitely worth a visit - no matter what time of year it is. Hopefully, this Travel Guide has given you some useful tips to make your stay unforgettable!

    Eine kleine gemütliche Runde um das Große Meer, genau das Richtige für den Ankunftstag. Die Pünten sind ab 1.4. zu nutzen, das sollte man bei der Planung beachten. Auf der Ostseite habe ich den Weg als etwas zu schmal empfunden. Dafür sind die einzelnen Erklärstationen gut gemacht. Sehr schön auch die Hörstation, an der Aussichtsplattform südlich des Campingplatzes. Wer Interesse an Vogelbeobachtungen hat...ein Fernglas mitzunehmen lohnt sehr

    Wir können die negative Bewertung unseres Vorgängers nicht verstehen. Die Tour ist wunderschön, abwechslungsreich und entspannt. Wir waren an einem Sonntag Abend unterwegs wodurch natürlich auf dem kurzen Straßenstück kaum Verkehr war. Uns hat diese kleine Abendrunde sehr gut gefallen und können sie weiterempfehlen.

    Sehr zu empfehlen! Vor allem die Anbindung an Emden ist etwas besonderes. So lernt man Emden von der schönen Seite kennen!
