The Clausthal flood trench runs on the eastern slope of the Bruchberg through a very water-rich area. The ditch zapft u.a. the upper reaches of the Sieber and various smaller Oder tributaries.
In 1827, the Clausthal flood trench was completed. It has a hydraulic capacity of more than 100 liters of water per second. The ditch leads this water to the hub and thus ultimately to the ditch. This once led to the water wheels of the mines in and around Clausthal.

The Clausthaler flood ditch represents an outstanding technical masterpiece. It also shows the enormous effort that was used in the past to supply energy to the Harz silver mines.

Today, the moat, which is part of the roughly 50 kilometer Dammgraben system and is entirely handcrafted, is a listed building. He is also an active member of the water network system and UNESCO World Heritage "Upper Harz Water Regale". On the Clausthaler Flutgrabens you can walk along a beautiful path and get to know the water management structure closer.

Flowing single trail with partly beautiful views of the Brocken.

History:
The Clausthaler Flutgraben is a 4120 meter long moat in the Upper Harz. It runs on the eastern slope of the Bruchberg through a very water-rich area. The trench taps among other things the upper reaches of the Sieber as well as various smaller Oder tributaries.
The Clausthaler Flutgraben is part of the 50-kilometer dam ditch system of the "Upper Harz Water Regale", a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In 1827 it was built entirely by hand.

Nice trail along a moat. Easy to drive but narrow and good

Very nice single trail that is easy to drive and has hardly any incline along the old trench. After a bark beetle infestation a few years ago, the forest recovers and you have beautiful views of the Brocken.

An absolute highlight for me in terms of landscape. Especially because the Graben has completely changed its character in the last few decades (decades). 20 years ago it was dark and densely forested, then completely bare, now there is new undergrowth that does not block the great views again.
Technically without any challenges, the path is sometimes very narrow. Also great in winter, if the snow conditions allow it.
