Tips

In addition to the Heinrichshöhe and the Königsberg, the Kleiner Brocken is one of the three secondary peaks of the Brocken. This little brother of the highest Harz mountain is about one kilometer away from the main summit. The highest point is 1018 meters above sea level.

The Kleiner Brocken does not have a clearly defined peak. Its highest point presents itself as an almost flat area. This side summit of the Brocken extends north-west in front of the main summit as a partly forested mountain nose covered with granite boulders.

Hikers on the Hirtenstieg or on the Heinrich-Heine-Wanderweg also pass the Kleiner Brocken. At this point, a last rest area awaits you before the Brocken summit. With its striking superstructure, it can be seen clearly from here and is within reach. From the Kleiner Brocken you can also take a look back into the valley and into the northern Harz foreland.
