Goetheweg / Brockenaufstieg

Wide Brockenautodahn, yet a beautiful path in a wonderful natural setting.

Visible from afar, and often turn around when descending.
If the weather is right, it is a visual highlight.

One of the most beautiful ways to Brocken, also probably the most beautiful long distance hiking trail in the Harz, the Harzer-Hexen-Stieg leads over the Goetheweg up to Brocken.

If you master the few inclines, it is very easy to get to the Brocken.

In winter the path becomes very special.

The easiest way to Brocken.Abwohl the piece Goetheweg the train station has it all

Here the view from the Goetheweg coming from the direction of Torfhaus / Oderbrück.

Walking along the peat bog up to the top of the Brocken is simply a wonderful experience with many discoveries along the way.

Except for a short crisp slope very good for young and old to deal with.
Even stroller fitness.

Also in 2017 there will be the "Brockenaufstieg" from Göttingen. It takes place on 10 and 11 June and offers the opportunity to cover the 87 km from Göttingen on the Brocken in two days.

If you have passed the Goethebahnhof you walk for a while along the railway tracks

In good weather you have a great view of the peat house. In very good weather you also have the plague with thousands of flying ants.

A way not overcrowded in the morning. Not as steep as the way over the Eckerstieg, but longer.

If you're lucky, the steam engine comes here. Always nice to see.

Great nostalgic sight 🚂

A great hike from Torfhaus to Brocken. If you don't want it to be so strenuous, then you should wait for the snowmelt.

On the way from Oderbrück you have a great view of the Brockenhaus. The climb is definitely worth it!

Very nice climb to the Brocken, here drives the legendary Brockenbahn.
A must-have photo opportunity for Brockenwanderer.

A look like a painting.

Cotton grass at 1000 m above sea level!

It's just nice to see how slowly you approach the summit

Whether with MTB or on foot always exhausting.
