I think “voyage of discovery” sums it up very well, because you rarely get to see so many impressive things in such a short distance. It’s not for nothing that the region here is well hiked. As always, my version of these three popular stamping points is a little overgrown, but rewards us with a…
Well, “hike” is perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, it’s more of a walk around the Elfenstein, but a very worthwhile one. The tour starts directly at the hiking parking lot and first leads slightly uphill along a wide forest path. Shortly afterwards, the path becomes a narrow, somewhat overgrown path, which is still very…
On this short but crisp circular hike from Blankenburg, we collect three stamps for the Harz hiking pin in less than four kilometers. Our first destination is the Grandfather Rock. We climb a flight of steps and then a rooty path to the stamping point. It’s not all that easy. The actual viewpoint of the…
I did a similar hike this year – a circular hike from Auerhahn with three stamping points, together with my parents. This time I did another circular hike from Auerhahn, but with different stamp points. I had already visited the Köte am Heidenstieg on my hike from Ilsenburg to Goslar, and unfortunately I was too…
A great, approx. 3 km hike from the Lustgarten in Wernigerode with an incredible view of the castle in Wernigerode. Don’t be fooled by the short distance – the ascent to the Agnesberg is very steep and tough. From there, the route is easier until we descend shortly afterwards to the next stamping point, Gasthaus…
A short hike from Benzingerode near Wernigerode. If you come by car, you can park at the church in the village, as I did. From there, it’s only a short walk to the Austberg tower. Once there, we walk along the hill for a while before descending again and heading towards the village, only to…
After work, I went for a short walk to the stamp sites at the Steinberg tower and Granestausee lake. If I don’t start collecting stamps during the week, I don’t think I’ll be able to do it this year. The starting point was the parking lot at the Steinberg playground right on the edge of…
This time I went to all the stamp sites around Friedrichsbrunn that I was still missing for #HWN2024 – and to be honest, that was all of them. Stamp points on the hike You can park your car directly in front of the spa gardens in Friedrichsbrunn. From there, after a short crossing of the…
At the beginning of June, I set off on this adventurous tour through the Harz Mountains, which took me 67 km through the Harz Mountains and rewarded me with 16 stamps. Overnight accommodation can be found in the surrounding villages such as Wieda, Zorge, Braunlage and Hohegeiß. Unfortunately, it took me a little too long…
This time I went on a long tour through the Harz Mountains. Originally, the hike wasn’t just supposed to go from Torfhaus to Thale, but all the way to Meisdorf, but my health put a spanner in the works. Otherwise, the route often follows the northern variant of the Harzer Hexenstieg, but doesn’t skip any…
