I’ve now done this hike twice in a very similar form before I finally got around to presenting it to you here. Once in summer, when I collected all the stamps of the Harzer Wandernadel as part of #HWN2024, and another time on a glorious autumn day when we wanted to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere…
This hike to the Ottoebert Bridge is one of the shortest and, unfortunately, least spectacular in the Harz Mountains. The stamp point is reached quickly, but the location is somewhat disappointing. The bridge is certainly interesting for railroad fans, but as a scenic viewpoint I would have expected more.
This short section of the Teufelsmauer climb packs a lot of impressive nature into just a few kilometers. Both the stamp site and the majestic rock formations towering over the landscape are well worth a visit. The rocks are particularly impressive from below – a short circular walk is definitely worthwhile so as not to…
A wonderful hike that I was allowed to undertake in the summer took me on a circular walk from Riefensbeek-Kammschlacken on my hunt for stamps in the Harz Mountains. Incidentally, this is also where the Harzer Försterstieg ends, which holds a very special place in my heart. Unfortunately, you can’t tell from the accompanying article…

The Hünenteich hiking trail in the Hainich National Park invites you to discover the many facets of one of Germany’s last great beech forests. The trail leads through impressive landscapes with old trees, dead wood, seasonal meltwater and open areas where nature is allowed to unfold freely. This scenic diversity is not only a delight…

These stations are keys to the hidden secrets of the trail. Let yourself be enchanted and discover the mystical power of the Hainich Forest – protected and accompanied by the…
The 1.2 km long forest promenade is a must for all those who pass by the treetop path anyway. With its 11 themed islands that invite you to consciously experience nature, the short detour is well worth it. You can find more information on the official website
It is only a stone’s throw from the train station in Porta Westfalica to the starting point of the Weserbergland Trail. Incidentally, this is also part of the North-South Trail, even if the route is not 100% identical. Right at the start, the paths diverge slightly: while we climb up to the Porta-Kanzel and then…
