Trischen
The sandbank Trischen is almost 300 hectares and can be seen from far thanks to the beacons. Trischen lies 13 kilometers southwest of Büsum, by the Meldorfer Bucht and off the coast of Dithmarschen. Trischen is in Schleswig-Holstein. Due to continual sand accumulation, dune and marsh plants took root in the 20th century. Land reclamation works accelerated the process. Nowadays, the dunes are strongly eroding. The sandbank is declining and 'walks' 20 meters in an easterly direction every year.
