Best bird watching trails in Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea National Park

The Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea National Park covers the Schleswig-Holstein part of the Wadden Sea of the North Sea. The national park stretches from the mouth of the Elbe in the south to the Danish border in the north and covers an area of 4,380 square kilometers, making it the largest national park between the North Cape and Sicily. However, two thirds of the area is permanently under water and only one third periodically falls dry. Together with the Wadden Sea areas of Lower Saxony and Lower Saxony, the Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea has been a UNSECO World Heritage Site since 2009.
