For me, one of the most idyllic stamping points for the Harz hiking pin. The path along the “Allee der Bäume” is recommended. Here you walk through the Grumbachtal: one of the last completely forested valleys in the Upper Harz. An easy path to walk, the Grumbach gently babbles along and there is dense coniferous forest everywhere. Just before the Grumbach pond, you pass the Grumbach waterfall and then suddenly the Grumbach pond, surrounded by forest, lies quiet and calm in front of you - it doesn't get more Harz idyll than this! The reflection of the trees in the water is also beautiful! By the way, the stamping point is not only necessary for the HWN, but also for the Wildemann hiking pin!

HWN stamp office ♟️ Nice rest point with a refuge. Nice photo point with a waterfall 📸🌊

Magnificent nature, a beautiful pond with roots on the shore. Hikers should definitely take a break here.

The Förster-Ludewig-Platz is a very nice rest area and is located on the Dammgraben between Altenau and the Torfhaus. The rest area was designed very attractively with a seating area and the Schachtkopf hut. A footbridge takes you to another small rest area via a settling basin in the dam ditch, which frees the wild water coming from the Nabental waterfall from its flood of sediment. For fans of the Harz hiking nobility, stamp 133 can be obtained here

There are a total of four "Grumbacher Teiche" between the old mining towns of Wildemann and Hahnenklee. The construction of the Lower and Upper Grumbacher Teich can be dated back to before 1680. The middle pond was built after 1680. The fourth New Grumbacher Teich was added after 1714. The Grumbacher Teich was voted the most beautiful stamping spot in 2012 by our hiking friends. (HNW113)

Beautiful in every season. I'm looking forward to summer and cooling off in the water.

Still a nice spot, but unfortunately now also without spruce trees😒

Above the former "Free Mining Town of Altenau", the "Altenau" stream flows into the Dammgraben, about 600 m from the point where the "Kleine Oker" crosses the Dammgraben. Here, directly on the Harzer Hexenstieg, the stamping point is located at a rest area next to a water house. The Dammgraben continues its course via the Silberbrunnen, the tributaries of the Kleine Oker, the Große Oker, the Gerlachsbach, the Eisenquelle, the Große Kolk and the Morgenbrodtsthaler Graben to the Sperberhaier Damm. The shortest access route begins at the small parking lot on the right-hand side of the road from Torfhaus to Altenau. From there, cross the road and follow the path along the romantic Dammgraben to the stamping point. It is recommended to continue the hike along the Dammgraben to the Sperberhaier Dammhaus. You can also go back along the Dammgraben, cross the street and follow the Dammgraben to the “Förster-Ludewig-Platz” HWN 133. The two stamp stations on this section of the Dammgraben are particularly suitable for families with small children but also for seniors with physical disabilities.
