Meldorf Harbor Sluice Gate

Highlight • Structure

Nice little port. A bit further in the direction of Meldorf, the flora and fauna changes and is strongly reminiscent of the Dutch coast. Not far is a NABU house and the Kronenloch nature reserve

Beautiful, historic place where you can stop and linger for a while. The historic town center is worth seeing, and if you learn a little about Meldorf's history, the visit will be even more impressive. It's worth it!

A very nice bike path that runs along the dike. In bad weather, there are only two shelters. There could be more.

beautiful view of the nature reserve "Wöhrdener Loch" The 495 hectare “Wöhrdener Loch” in the north of the Meldorfer Speicherkoog is one of the two nature reserves that were created to compensate for the loss of around 1560 hectares of sandy tidal flats and around 900 hectares of foreland and salt marsh areas as a result of the diking. In contrast to the southern "Kronenloch", the "Wöhrdener Loch" is cut off from the salt water flow. The aim was to create a freshwater biotope in this area as a breeding, feeding and resting place for endangered bird species. https://www.schutzstation-wattenmeer.de/unsere-stations/meldorfer-speicherkoog/nsg-woehrdener-loch/

South of the new Meldorf harbor is the 532-hectare Kronenloch nature reserve. Here, for the first time, a saltwater biotope with a tidal influence was created on the west coast within a dike. In the now designated wilderness area (Natura 2000) the goal is: “Let nature be nature”. https://www.schutzstation-wattenmeer.de/unsere-stations/meldorfer-speicherkoog/nsg-kronenloch/
