Waldgasthaus Plessenburg (HWN 007)

Fantastic hike through the Ilsental in the footsteps of Heinrich Heine. The food at the Waldgasthof Plessenburg was delicious and filling (plessenburg.de/). In a small but fine hut, we were lovingly cared for by a young landlady with cocoa and coffee. In the National Park House Ilsetal we were then surprised by a climbing wildcat.

Incidentally, the Bavarian Wolpertinger is called “Rasselbock” in the Harz Mountains.

The Waldgasthaus Plessenburg is the perfect place for a refreshment on a tour to the Brocken.

Forsthaus Plessenburg today with a popular restaurant.

Of all the trails that lead to the highest peak of the Harz, the Heinrich Heine Trail through the scenic Ilsetal in my opinion the most beautiful. The famous poet chose this route in 1824. The scenic route leads along winding forest paths through the Ilsetal to the Ilsefälle and further up to the Brocken.

Very good value for money in a pleasant atmosphere ...

Here hikers and bikers can eat well and cheaply without a long wait, so that you can continue your tour without much time lag

The Plessenburg is a popular place for excursions

Relaxed place to stay with lots of easy seating and lounging on the expansive lawns.

This is always a nice rest stop. The toilets are exemplary clean. Too bad that the ventilation is not so good. If you sit in on a rainy day with other hikers inside, the air gets tight. Nevertheless, a recommendation.

Very accessible from Drei Annen Hohne or Ilsenburg.

Nice place for a break. In the restaurant is self-service and in good weather outside in the beer garden to relax, wonderful!
