Hiking
High above the town of Bad Blankenburg, the gateway to the Schwarzatal, on the local mountain covered with old beech trees, lies the town's landmark, Greifenstein Castle. At around 250 m long and around 80 m wide, the castle complex was one of the largest German feudal castles.

A definitely worthwhile destination. Very well maintained and well signposted.
