The landscape begins to green, and the air is crisp, making it ideal for walks and observing wildlife. It's a wonderful time for couples or solo travellers who appreciate natural beauty and quiet observation.Autumn is equally spectacular, as millions of birds gather in the Wadden Sea before their journey south. This period is particularly renowned for the vast flocks of barnacle geese and brent geese. The weather can be changeable, but often offers clear, cool days superb for spending time outdoors.
