Krausand Island on the Elbe – Altes Land: Krausand covers approximately 24 square kilometres and has about 450 residents. It is connected to the mainland by two bridges. A magnificent 3-kilometer-long sandy beach with many reed beds and willow trees invites you to swim, sunbathe, walk on the mudflats, and hike. The Elbe island is characterised by its many pastures and fruit farms—especially the cherry blossoms in the Altes Land. Nature reserves and a diverse bird life make nature lovers’ hearts beat faster. The hiking trails lead past old thatched-roof houses, horse and cattle pastures, wetlands, large fruit farms, and old harbour facilities. There are beautiful paths everywhere: The Elbe Cycle Route is a delight for every cyclist; the dike is perfect for hiking; and the beautiful beach and mudflat areas are second to none. From the island, you can easily watch the bustling ship traffic on the Elbe.

Nearby Attractions: Since the Elbe island of Krautsand lies between Hamburg and Cuxhaven, there are many wonderful destinations for holidaymakers to explore. Hamburg entices visitors with a variety of attractions (fish market, harbour, Reeperbahn, historic old town), while Bremen, Bremerhaven, and Cuxhaven are also worth a visit. The lovingly restored old towns of Stade and Buxtehude will fascinate you. Glücksstadt and the Kiel Canal are further highlights. Many museums in the surrounding area offer interesting exhibits. You can experience all facets of maritime life there, and the Natureum in Balje is a special attraction for nature lovers. Visit the Hadler Land region and let yourself be captivated by the charm of Wingst and the beauty of the small town of Otterndorf/Niederelbe on the Medem River. Rest and relaxation await guests everywhere. Sports enthusiasts are also in the right place here; you can enjoy almost all water sports (surfing, water skiing, sailing, canoeing, etc.), as well as horseback riding, hiking, tennis, cycling, and more.
