Benneckenstein was connected to the Harzquerbahn in 1898 and has had a train station ever since. Unfortunately, it was closed in 1996 for cost reasons. Today it is just a stop on the HSB.

Hiking

From HSB station Benneckenstein you can start a couple of nice hikes, e.g. to the HWN Grüntal stamp office, to the Red Sofa (special stamp) or to the border museum in Sorge. The steam locomotives are always a great photo opportunity.
