ランゲスハイムの湖・トップ20

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!

One of six ponds in a cascade in the Grumbach valley as well as various moats, which were used to transport the precious water. All of these facilities were built from 1680 to supply the water wheels of the mines around Hahnenklee-Bockswiese. They are part of the cultural monument "Oberharzer Wasserregal" and since 2010 also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.🌊💙🌊

The Middle Grumbacher Pond is one of many idyllic ponds in the Upper Harz water shelf and the enchanted-looking paths here. If you want to enjoy the idyll in peace, it's better to hike here outside of weekends, public holidays and holiday periods, because the Liebesbankweg and the pond cascades are now so popular that sometimes there's almost too much going on. Or you start running when the weather isn't so great, then it's quieter :)

Here you can see the idyllic Middle Grumbacher Pond, beautifully located and great paths on the Liebesbankweg

The Mittlerer Grumbacher Teich is a former mining pond in the Upper Harz surrounded by forest on three sides. It is located southwest of the Bocksberg and east of the town of Bockswiese. The man-made body of water was originally called the “Herzog-August-Teich” and served as a water and energy storage facility for the ore mines and smelting operations of the Bockswieser Zug. The pond dam was built in the summer of 1675 by just 70 miners in just 10 weeks. This reservoir was subsequently raised and partially redesigned using a new pond construction method. In 1827 the dam at the Middle Grumbacher Pond almost burst. On the airside embankment, a section about 20 meters long slipped, leaving less than half a meter of the top of the dam standing. A hastily organized large-scale rescue operation was able to prevent the impending breach of the pond dam at the last moment. The impending catastrophe, which would have flooded and washed away the two raft ponds down the valley and large parts of the town of Bockswiese, did not occur and the pond, which is extremely important for the operation of the ore mines and smelting works, could be completely repaired without emptying it.

At the end of the Grumbacher Flößgraben is the Grumbacher waterfall and a small viewing platform. The precious water falls around 15 meters down the slope until it reaches the Grumbach below the Grumbacher Teich. However, the location at the end of the ditch is less suitable for observing the waterfall. You can see more at the foot of the waterfall. To do this, go back to the stairs, which will take you to the southeast end of the dam of the Grumbacher Teich. There you take the narrow, steeply descending path. After about one hundred meters you will reach the waterfall visible between the boulders. In winter, the icy Grumbacher waterfall offers a thoroughly impressive sight. During the warm and dry season, however, you should not expect an all too impressive spectacle here with lush vegetation. Source: https://www.harzlife.de/teiche/unterer-grumbacher-teich.html

It was my first time there and I was really excited! Great atmosphere great food great nature

Wonderful panorama 🌊💙 Stamp office of the HWN 110♟️ Beautiful shelter with benches available to really enjoy what is offered here - simply wonderful ❣️🤗📸 Built in 1969, the Granetalsperre 🌊 is the youngest of the Harz reservoirs. Because the Grane river does not carry enough water for the 3 km long lake, an approx. 7.4 km long tunnel to the Oker was dug below the Okertalsperre. 😲
