Germany’s Northernmost FKT: Sylt South–North Beach Traverse

Submitted by Uli Staudenmayer on Mon, 09/08/2025 - 07:07am
Description

This route traverses the entire island of Sylt, Germany’s most famous North Sea island, from the southernmost accessible point of the “Hörnumer Odde“ to the northernmost point of Sylt – which at the same time marks the northernmost point of Germany.

 

The run follows the entire western coastline of Sylt and is completed exclusively on the beach, directly on the sand, without using roads, paved sections, or inland trails. This makes the route unique and significantly more demanding than a standard road or trail run.
