This loop traverses the narrow land bridge of Fischland, situated between the Baltic Sea and the Saaler Bodden lagoon. The route connects the high coastal bank with the sheltered reed belts of the inland bay. The trail surface varies between paved flood protection embankments and natural soil paths along the cliff edge. Dense populations of sea buckthorn and wild rose bushes border the track, while the Bodden shoreline supports diverse waterfowl species. The exposed nature of the high bank corresponds to consistent wind patterns, often necessitating windproof clothing layers.
