    The bobsleigh track was built in 1907. Essentially it was a natural track.[1] Competitions, including the German and Harz Championships, took place on this bobsleigh track intermittently between 1908 and 1958.

      This hiking trail was built in 1907 as a bobsleigh track. Competitions such as the German and Harz Championships were held on the bob run. Speeds of 70 km/h - 100 km/h were reached on the bob run. This made the bob run one of the fastest of its time. In 1950 the bob run was closed.

      The hiking trail is wonderful and easy to walk on. From time to time there is something about "stick" and "stone".
