Is there still a car-free place in Europe? If you want a holiday without traffic jams, head to Baltrum in the Wadden Sea. The island’s 600 inhabitants use bicycles for transportation, and visitors go sightseeing on horse-drawn carriages. The roads are nameless streets, and the only vehicles allowed are for emergency use and coastal protection. Separated by tidal channels from nearby islands Langeoog and Norderney, Baltrum is a 6.5-sq-km (2.5-sq-mi) barrier island with 4 km (2.5 mi) of beaches, offshore sandbanks, a world-class spa center, an airstrip, and a ferry terminal. The Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park is a popular destination for tourists. Haus an der Aussichtsdüne, a viewing platform on top of the highest coastal dune, is also a marvelous spot for intrepid travelers.
