• Rickelsbüller Koog (1982)

Depending on the age since it was dyed, the soil is now mainly classified as Kleimarsch . Due to the absolutely flat relief, as well as the low location near the coast at or just below sea level in the hinterland of the North Frisian Wadden Sea , active drainage of the municipality is a fundamental necessity for agricultural use in the field of arable farming .

Both are members of the superordinate dyke and main sewer association Südwesthörn-Bongsiel .
