Fördenland

In westerly winds it’s futile looking for waves in Fördenland, yet there are freeride spots everywhere. Easterly winds are markedly strengthened in the funnel-shaped Eckernförder Bay, but the region offers an array of alternatives for that whole side of the compass. The hilly Schleswig-Holstein forms a wonderful backdrop with its mix of rapeseed fields and knotted forests, small villages and winding country roads, farmhouses and prehistoric cairns.
