    Hiking

    This shelter was named after Walter Schmidt, former managing director of the Hasseröder brewery.

    Our shelters in the Harz National Park are usually located in places worth seeing and are therefore popular hiking destinations. They serve as a short-term rest and break option and as protection in the event of bad weather. Overnight stays are only permitted in an emergency. In the interest of everyone, whether human or animal, our shelters must be kept clean.

    Cross-country skiing

    Shelter in case of snowstorm or rain, but also suitable for a picnic.

    Here you also have a wide view of the valley and the surrounding mountains. Unfortunately, this view is clouded by the bitter truth that the forest is dying. You see dead trees. The good news is that it is mainly the European spruce that is dying, which does not grow naturally in the resin. The resin spruce that is native to this area is already growing back by itself.
