Sylt: Von Keitum zum Morsumer Kliff
Diese Tour gehört für uns zu den schönsten auf Sylt. Wir starten in Keitum, das im 17. Jahrhundert beliebter Alterssitz von wohlhabenden Kapitänen war. Durch schmale Gassen mit schmucken Friesenhäusern (und teuren Boutiquen) schlendern wir meist unter Bäumen zum Wattenmeer. Ab hier geht’s immer geradeaus, links die Marschwiesen, rechts Weiden. So laufen wir vorbei an Morsum, durch die Morsumer Heide und zu einem spektakulären Geotop: das Morsumer Kliff, das an seiner höchsten Stelle knapp 20 Meter misst. Das besondere an dieser Kliffküste: In der Saale-Eiszeit vor gut 120.000 Jahren stauchten mächtige Gletscher die einzelnen Schichtungen, die in Jahrmillionen entstanden waren, auf und stellten sie schräg. Deshalb liegen sie heute nebeneinander und nicht übereinander. Besonders gut ist das von unten zu sehen: rechts Glimmerton, in der Mitte roter Limonitsandstein, links sehr heller Kaolinsand. Diese Naturschönheit wäre fast verschwunden. Die Baumeister des Hindenburgdamms, der wenige hundert Meter vom Kliff entfernt verläuft, überlegten, das Kliff abzutragen und den Sand für den Damm zu nutzen. Naturfreunde setzten sich durch. Seit 1923 steht das Morsumer Kliff unter Schutz.
Auf unserem Weg liegt kein einziger Badestrand. Vielleicht ist es auch deshalb hier so ruhig, von den Rufen der Seevögel abgesehen. Bis kurz vor dem Morsumer Kliff (wo es einen großen Wanderparkplatz gibt) begegnen uns nur wenige Menschen, die meisten von ihnen mit Hund. Und die ohne Hund wollen deinen streicheln 🙂 Mit einem gut kontrollierbaren Vierbeiner reicht eine Schleppleine. Nur am und auf dem Kliff ist einiges los, der Wauzi sollte also kurz geführt werden. Unter Füßen und Pfoten: sandige, vor allem aber matschige Pfade. Festes, am besten wasserfestes Schuhwerk zu empfehlen. Kein Schatten. Wasser für den Hund mitnehmen.
An unserem Startpunkt, dem kostenlosen Parkplatz am Gurtstig (vor Ortseingang am Kreisverkehr) kann man auch prima ein Wohnmobil abstellen.

Das Morsumer Kliff. Die hintereinander liegenden Schichtungen sind von hier unten super zu erkennen.
Start in Keitum. Vorbei geht es an wunderschönen Friesenhäusern.
Die Keitumer Bucht, einst ein bedeutender Hafen - der schließlich verschlickte und vor Jahrhunderten aufgegeben wurde.
Zunächst bleiben die Pfoten noch sauber. Die Nase nicht. Viel zu spannend hier.
Die ersten Dächer von Morsum.
Wo das Morsumer Kliff beginnt, wird aus der Heidelandschaft mit ihren schönen Herbstfarben fast übergangslos eine faszinierende Sandlandschaft.
Superservice, superleckere Küche und eine eigene Hundedusche: das Landhaus Severins in der Heide über dem Morsumer Kliff.
Vom Kliffhang laufen wir hinunter, vorbei an Schafweiden. Im Hintergrund rauscht der Autoreisezug über den Hindenburgdamm.
Fast die gesamte Wanderung haben wir Amos davon abhalten können, in die Entwässerungsgräben zu springen, die die Marsch durchziehen. Und dann traf Amos auf die richtige Hundefreundin. :-) Stinkend, schmutzig und glücklich. Na denn.
