Tøndermarsken is Denmark’s largest area of marsh – a flat, distinctive landscape created by the sea and shaped by people. There’s a rich architectural culture to discover across this magnificent cultural landscape, which is home to some of some of Europe’s most Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBA). Several rare and endangered species come to the marsh to breed. The area is also part of the Wadden Sea National Park. The western part is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Water is central to the history of Tøndermarsken. Nowadays, dykes and sluices protect the marsh from flooding. A system of river dykes, canals and pumping stations channel river and rainwater across the marsh. The oldest dike in Tønder Marsh was built in 1554-56. Over the years, new land was created and lost land reclaimed. Many dykes were built. The most recent dyke, “Det fremskudte Dige”, was completed in 1981.

Driving on the road surrounded by the sea was unforgetable experience, one of the higlights of my trip to Denmark. Even terrible weather didn't discourage me from stopping at the little lookout points, walk a bit and take a few pictures. Stopping there is absolutelly safe with enough space to park a car and getting back to the road is also easy as the traffic is not too heavy. There are information panels at each stopp (two in the direction to the island, one on the way back) telling details about the dam and it is also possible to get down to the water and walk along the shore.

Stretching south from Fano off the coast of Denmark down through Germany, the Wadden Sea is a stunning shallow coastal sea with lots of sand banks and mud flats giving breeding grounds to many bird species. Great views on the boat ride over from Esbjerg to Fano, and travelling along the Danish coastline. Great spots for picnics and watching the sunsets. Swimming is possible - though its very cold!!! Excellent place to spend a quiet few days in Denmark.

Experience The Marsch Trail and Discover Tøndermarsken, Denmark's largest marsch. The Marsch trail is a 54 km long trail. You will encounter outstanding birdlife and a very special landscape, formed by human habitation and man's attempt to control the water. Tøndermarsken is part of the Wadden Sea National Park and part of the area is designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. If you follow the 54km-long hiking trail, you will cover Tøndermarsken in its entirety. You will see the villages and towns in this enchanting, unique marshland. This wild and unspoiled landscape is deceptive. It was actually carefully designed and shaped by the people who lived near the water. As you follow the marsh trail, you will feel the wind. Look out across the flat landscape. There are dykes and birds as far as the eye can see. Your experience of the marsh will depend on the weather, which changes from day to day.
