    Along and above the Bode you can always catch new views of the unique valley. But it also goes up and down in bends and steps. Not suitable for prams

      In some places you can walk on the flat bank

        A great hike through the Bodetal which you should have done once. 😃

                The Bodetal really speaks for itself and is one of the most beautiful valleys in the Harz Mountains.

                          Here you can take a break right on the river

                            The descent behind the small Taschenberg (seen from Thale) leads so close to the Bode that you can wash your hands or the dog can cool off.
                            The water here is probably of drinking quality (no guarantee).

                              Wonderful hiking trail through the Bodetal between Thale and Treseburg... sometimes you come directly to the river

                                The slope to the Bode is very steep and partly unsecured. The path is alpine and requires surefootedness and in some cases a head for heights; it also has many stones and tree roots. This requires a high level of mindfulness. This almost became my undoing, I stumbled and wanted to hold onto my sticks. But immediately at the edge of the path there was a 50 cm deep heel and I fell. I got stuck on the tree stump. Otherwise I would have crashed the StelHang over 25 m and hit rocks in the Bode. This was at the steepest point. No safety ropes there, first a little further railing,

                                  Here the box brook flows into the valley.

                                    From the Hirschgrund to Tresebeck you run several kilometers parallel to the Bode, in places at the same height so you can enjoy the cool water

                                      At this point there is easy access to the banks of the Bode. Balancing on the stones results in a wonderful sight with the right incidence of light.

                                          The Bodetal is beautiful! On narrow paths near the Bode you hike through the most impressive rocky valley north of the Alps.

                                            A hike through the Bode Valley is definitely worth it.
