Harzer Hexenstieg through the Bodetal Gorge

The Bodetal is probably the most beautiful valley in the Harz Mountains and is also one of the most beautiful gorges in Germany. In some places it is also referred to as the Grand Canyon of the Harz Mountains. The granite rocks to the right and left of the Bode River rise up to 280 meters high. This rises on the Brocken and paves an impressive path through granite and rock. The many rocks, smoothed by the torrential water, invite you to take a break and cool off your overheated feet in many places.

A hike through the Bodetal is one of the most beautiful hiking trails in the Harz Mountains. Unfortunately, others know that too. Therefore, you have to be prepared for a lot of public traffic when you hike through the Bode Gorge. It is best to start the approximately nine-kilometer hike from Thale to Treseburg early in the morning, when it is less busy. The way back can be covered by bus.

Along the Bode you can always catch new views of the unique valley

One of the most beautiful ways to go 👍😎
