Dunum is a small village located away from the main roads. Nevertheless, you can reach the coast by car in about ten minutes. The districts and farms are widely scattered in Dunum. We offer you an unforgettable vacation with bossel games, barbecue evenings on the village sports field, folk theater, carriage rides and joint cycling and hiking tours.
Dunum is centrally located with excellent transport links to all excursion destinations in East Frisia. It is not far to the coast and thus to the tourist and spa facilities, for example in the North Sea spas Esens-Bensersiel or Neuharlingersiel. However, you do not have to pay a guest contribution with us. Only if the "North Sea Service Card" (spa card) is worthwhile for you, we also offer this offer.
Around Dunum you will find the original East Frisian hedge landscape, extensive wetlands with a beautiful and interesting plant and animal life as well as a large forest with rich wildlife. You will be amazed at how often you can ride your bike over the side roads and bike paths and observe numerous wildlife on the meadows and fields in the twilight.
According to the old legend, the "Radbodsberg" in Dunum is the grave of the Frisian King Radbod. He managed as the only chief to unite all Frisian peoples and to win a historic victory against the Northmen. Our old brick church from the 13th century is also a special attraction.
The East Frisia hiking trail leads directly through Dunum and offers you the healthiest connection to the North Sea by bike to the coastal and North Sea spas or to the dike. For this, we have also prepared a bicycle and hiking map for you. Our location is ideal for walks, bike tours and discovery trips of all kinds into the unique and diverse nature of East Frisia. Experience your vacation at the North Sea actively and relaxed and benefit optimally from the Reizklima of the North Sea.
On the way to the beach in nearby Bensersiel, you pass through the old knightly town of Esens north of Dunum. There are, for example, the indoor play park "Klabautermann" for children and a rich offer of gastronomic, shopping and recreational opportunities for adults.
