    We were traveling by bike, but the Elfenstein stamp office could only be reached on foot.
    My husband went to clock out and I was able to wait at the Harzburg window.

    Hiking

    The Elfenstein is a striking quartzite cliff above Bad Harzberg. It is an attractive and relatively easy-to-reach hiking destination. The rock formation can be climbed with the help of a staircase. From the top, there is a good view of the districts of Bündheim and Schlewecke, as well as the adjoining northern Harz foothills. The Harly ridge and the Wöltingerode monastery are among the sights.
