Hiking

The Harzer Hexenstieg is a nearly 100 km long hiking trail that leads from Osterode through the Harz over the Brocken to Thale - this is where the part that leads up to the Brocken summit begins. There are also several alternative routes, one of which even includes a circumnavigation of the Brocken😊

Hiking

The path goes up quite steeply like an ant path. It is feasible, but there is no longer a protective forest, so a headgear in summer is essential. Good shoes are also recommended.

Great trail, but the bark beetle really took a toll on the trees
