Wonderful path next to the ditch. At one point e
You have a fantastic view of the Brocken.
The path is also very popular with mountain bikers, so there are sometimes bottlenecks.

This is a very nice hiking trail. In the early morning, when the sun rises, the sun shines directly on the way. It has been fantastic. The path is good to walk, as on clouds you go on some sections.

This path is the most beautiful Grabenweg that I have hiked in the Harz Mountains so far.
The narrow path always runs along the ditch, lined with heather and blueberries.
Wonderful to celebrate in mid / end of August - then the berries are ripe.
On the way you always have wonderful views of the Brocken, the Achtermann and the Wurmberg.
If you combine the path with a detour to the Wolfswarte or around the Oderteich, then the Harz experience is perfect.

In the sunshine you can see how reddish the water shimmers. The red color comes from the moors. A wonderful hiking trail in a historic location! The Clausthal flood ditch used to be used to supply energy in mining. It is part of the Upper Harz Water Shelf and is therefore a world cultural heritage site.

The well-laid out footpaths along the various ditches are shady and largely flat. Technically very easy, very scenic paths.

The Clausthaler Flutgraben is an approximately 4,120 meter long moat in the Upper Harz. It runs on the eastern slope of the Bruchberg through an area that is very rich in water. The ditch taps into, among other things, the upper reaches of the Sieber and various smaller Oder tributaries.

😎In 1827 the Clausthal flood ditch was completed. It has a hydraulic capacity of more than 100 liters of water per second. The ditch feeds this water to the hub and ultimately to the dam ditch. This once routed it to the water wheels of the mines in and around Clausthal.
The Clausthal flood ditch is an outstanding technical masterpiece. It also shows the enormous effort that went into supplying energy to the Harz silver mines in the past. Today the moat, which is part of the approximately 50-kilometer-wide dam ditch system and was built entirely by hand, is a listed building. It is also an active part of the water network system and UNESCO World Heritage Site “Upper Harz Water Shelf”. You can hike along a beautiful path along the Clausthaler Flutgraben and get to know the water management structure better.
