If the guest does not hike to the west tower, he goes with the Wangerooger Inselbahn and reaches the beautiful island railway station. The driving and supervision of the railway is the responsibility of the DB.

January 23, 2025,Wangerooge Wanderung lll: Runde um die Ostspitze

Today a stiff breeze with wind speeds of up to 50 km/h drove us along the beach. Sun and clouds offered a varied natural spectacle. The remains of the eastern jetty and the eastern barge were impressive.

A hot tea from the pot in the shelter of the dune at the eastern tip was good, because when we turned west …
