An amazing section of the Selketal-Stieg. Here you hike directly on the Selke along the cliffs. In addition to the narrowest part of the valley, you also come through a tunnel. This area is mandatory for Selke hikers! ;)

Hiking

The cliff path in the Selketal is still one of the most beautiful paths you can walk in the Harz despite the tree deaths.

The path makes every wanderer's heart beat faster, the hammer is the passage with the roots.
