Dunes Drive Description
It is possible to drive into the fantastic dune landscape on a road which runs into a gypsum track. In 3mi/5km the Big Dune Nature Trail goes off on the left. The road ends after 8mi/13km in the heart of the dunes. It is a curious experience to climb one of the dunes in the soft sand, which in spite of the heat is cool.
