Tips

The ruins of the royal castle are a first class destination. High above Königshütte you have a brilliant view of the Hochharz. The relatively small castle ruins also house the stamp office 41 of the Harzer hiking nobility. It is also part of the Harzer-Hexen-Stieg.

A good vantage point and a very popular stamping spot.

The ruins of the Königsburg are on the way to the Harzer Hexenstieg. From here you have a magnificent view of the valley. The ruin itself is quite small. The ascent is narrow and relatively steep. Nothing for prams.

stamp hunter:
Here is the stamp office 41 of the Harzer hiking nobility. You can also put a stamp in the Harzer Hexenstieg booklet and in the Götheheft booklet.

A great place for a break with a great view.
