Beschrijving
Norderoog is a remote, uninhabited 'Hallig' (low-lying island without protective dikes), in the Wadden Sea. Surrounded by vast mudflats, tidal channels, and salt marshes. These diverse habitats create a unique environment for a wide variety of bird species, making it a prime location for birdwatching. From migratory shorebirds to resident seabirds, Norderoog offers a rich tapestry of avian life, especially during migration seasons.
Among the bird species commonly spotted here are Scholekster, Wulp, various species of waders like Zilverplevier, and an array of terns and gulls. Norderoog is also home to one of the largest and most important colonies of Grote Stern in Germany.
Access to Norderoog is strictly regulated to preserve its delicate ecosystem. Visitors can only explore the island through guided tours, organized by the Schutzstation-Wattenmeer and the Verein Jordsand. Tour dates and additional information can be found on their websites: see the links below.
From spring to autumn, the Hallig is under the care of a dedicated nature warden, who lives alone in the stilts huts on the island, completely cut off from the outside world. This solitary figure ensures the protection of the island and its wildlife, maintaining a quiet and undisturbed environment for both the birds and the occasional fortunate visitor.

The Klima Hallig Norderoog project not only focuses on sustainable environmental management and climate protection but also provides valuable insights into the island's dynamic ecosystem. To enhance public engagement and raise awareness, the project has installed webcams on the Hallig, allowing visitors and nature enthusiasts to observe real-time changes in the landscape and wildlife, including the diverse birdlife and tidal fluctuations. These live streams contribute to understanding the impact of climate change on the Hallig and offer a unique opportunity for virtual visitors to experience this remote area. See the link below.
