Westerholt

Geographically, Westerholt is located directly on the coast of East Frisia and is surrounded by picturesque landscapes. The region is characterised by its kilometre-long sandy beaches, the wide meadows and fields and the characteristic marshland landscape. The harsh climate has created a very special microclimate here with a variety of rare animal and plant species.

Topically relevant sights include Westerholt Castle, which is now used as a hotel, and the historic windmill "Auricher Torfmühle". A visit to the nearby Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park is also definitely worthwhile.

Cultural highlights are above all the numerous museums in Wittmund, such as the local history museum or also the museum for aviation history. Here you can learn a lot about the history of the region.

For culinary delights, you should definitely try the East Frisian tea - best served with Kluntje (rock candy) and cream! But fresh fish is also part of the typical regional dishes.

The most beautiful outdoor activities are offered especially in the summer months: Beach walks, mudflat hikes or cycling tours through the picturesque landscape are particularly popular here. Water sports enthusiasts also get their money's worth - surfing and kite surfing, for example, are available at the nearby beach of Carolinensiel.

If it rains, a visit to the "Wittmund" adventure pool is a good idea, or even a tour of the indoor play paradise for children nearby.

All in all, Westerholt is a wonderful destination with a lot of charm and character. A travel guide can help you discover all the highlights of the region and plan your holiday perfectly!
