What is mudflat walking?

Mudflat walking is walking across the exposed seabed between the Wadden Islands and the mainland, or on the sandbanks around the islands. At low tide, the sea reveals a mysterious landscape: mud flats, sandbanks, shell fields and channels. With a guide, you can safely discover life on the mudflats, part of UNESCO World Heritage.

You can also cross the mudflats from the mainland to Ameland on foot with a guide. This tour starts in Holwerd and takes about 4.5 hours. During the tour, you will cover 10 kilometres through mud flats and over sandbanks. Good physical condition is required to do this tour.
