Poppenberg Tower (HWN 92)

The South Harz is completely unjustly underestimated! There are not only great paths and interesting excursion destinations there, but also some fine mountains. Like the Poppenberg, which at 600.6 meters high offers a fantastic view over the entire South Harz. However, the mountain itself is wooded and only offers this view if you climb the Poppenberg tower. The 33.5 meter high observation tower offers a clear view of the Brocken and the Kyffhäuser. The best thing to do on a hike is to combine the Poppenberg with the Hohnstein castle ruins. If you are a good walker, you should also take the Ilfeld weather vane and the Breitenstein. I was totally thrilled with this tour here: komoot.de/tour/309051619.

If you have made the ascent, you should definitely go up to the tower. Fantastic wide views, stamp 92 of the Harz hiking pin. Can be easily combined with the Ilfeld weather vane and the three-valley view

Beautiful observation tower with a hut as a rest opportunity.
