You can see it from afar, the mighty white cliff. The path that goes up is a must for every hiking fan.

The Sachsenstein is one of the most impressive rock massifs in the southern Harz Mountains. On the steep face of the Sachsenstein cliffs, which tower far above the landscape, you have a good view of Bad Sachsa and the surrounding karst region.

The stamping point was moved up from the Helbing Hütte in 2016.

The Sachsenstein is a nice place to rest and take photos, there is also the stamp point 166 of the Harzer hiking nobility!

Nice view of Bad Sachsa. Cliff walk on the crest of the karst landscape is recommended.

Walking along this beautiful cliff path adorned with white gypsum rock is a must when visiting Neuhof. The path requires a little surefootedness. You don't have to climb a very big slope here and it is therefore doable for most people. These great views from the Sachsenstein cliff are simply wonderful.

Wonderful views of the valley in front of Bad Sachsa. But suitable for smaller climbing activities.

Wonderful single trail on the edge of the cliffs. Not for people with a fear of heights.
