Hallig Hooge Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

View from the Backenswarft on Hallig Hooge. The Hallig Hooge is the second largest of the ten islets in the Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea. She is surrounded by an approximately 1.20 meters high stone dyke and is thus protected from light storm surges. Nevertheless Hallig Hooge is flooded completely two to five times a year. The Houses are built on high mounds. Therefore they can withstand the storm surges. The Hallig Hooge has twelve mounds. The Backenswarft is the second largest mound with a dozen buildings. The buildings surround the pond with rainwater.

In this picture you can see drainage ditches (also called Grüppen in German). They're typical for the landscape around the North Sea. These drainage ditches in the picture are located on a small flat island in the North Sea called Hallig Hooge. You can see the reflexion of the clouds that are illuminated by the setting sun.

Our room was definitely not what we expected with mold in the shower, extremely uncomfortable bed and bedding and in general not very clean. The rest of the hotel was very nice. Service was super friendly and the breakfast was quite good.
