Langeoog sits roughly in the middle of the seven East Frisian Islands. The ‘long island’ lives up to its name – it stretches some 20 kilometres, while at its narrowest point it’s barely a kilometre wide.
The island abounds with blooming sea buckthorn and wild rose bushes, salt meadows and rolling dunes. Just 5% of Langeoog is built up – the rest is unspoilt island nature, most of it protected as a nature reserve. Since 2009, nearly two-thirds of the island has been part of the Wadden Sea National Park. The landscape is ideal for exploring on foot or by bike.
