Pitch at the Wieke
A paved pitch right next to the host's house is all the host reveals. Großefehn is a fen colony: ruler-straight canals, peat soil, and the wind that settles in the poplars in the evening. The Wieken, old peat canals, run through the village. Cycling is the way to get around here – flat and mostly along the water. A day trip will get you to the coast and the Pilsum lighthouse. Oldenburg: around 47 kilometers away.1

Sights in the area1
Pilsum Lighthouse
The yellow-and-red tower behind the dyke, famous from the Otto film. The short walk up onto the dyke is worth it even in wind, and wind is near constant on the coast.
Cycle path Greetsiel to Pilsum Lighthouse
A flat dyke cycle path runs between the fishing village of Greetsiel and the lighthouse. Half a day on the bike, without a single climb.
Lütetsburg Castle
A moated castle near Norden with an English landscape garden: old trees, ponds, bridges. The quiet afternoon for days when the wind stands over the coast.
Oldenburg
The nearest larger city, around 47 kilometres away. Old town, pedestrian streets and museums make it the rainy-day option when nothing is happening out on the fen.
