The car park can be reached by a long drive through the forest. Offers some parking spaces and rest benches. From here you can start the circumnavigation of the dam or other hikes. For stamp lovers, a stamp of the Harzer Wandernadel (Harz Hiking Pin) awaits you here. Due to the "solitary location" of the dam, it is very quiet and a bit mystical, especially in the evening hours 🧙‍♀️
