배드 그런드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The Hübichenstein consists of two connected rock outcrops. The rocks are part of a former coral reef.

Very nice path.

The many half-timbered houses surrounding the large square in front of the church are beautiful to look at. Unfortunately, there are now also many vacant shops and cafés.

In an idyllic valley open to the south, surrounded by beautiful deciduous and mixed forests of the Harz Nature Park, lies the oldest of the Upper Harz mountain towns and a state-recognized climatic health resort with a healing tunnel spa for respiratory diseases.

North of Bad Grund, the Hübichenstein is a striking landmark in the Harz Mountains, rising around 50 metres into the air. The steep limestone rock is located near the B242 federal highway. Two rocky outcrops are connected to each other and give the rock its unique appearance. The Hübichenstein was once part of a coral reef from the Devonian period and is geologically assigned to the limestone stock of the Iberg. Various pingos in the area around the rock indicate an earlier mining tradition. There are also several caves in the area. During a hike around the rock needle, ore residues and impsonite can be seen. The mineral indicates the presence of mineral oil. Since the entire area is protected, it is forbidden to climb the rock. In honour of Emperor Wilhelm I, an oversized bronze eagle with a wingspan of around three metres was erected on the top of the highest rock in 1897. In addition, there was once a two-meter-high statue dedicated to the emperor on the lower part of the Hübichenstein. After the end of the First World War, however, this was destroyed, so that only the eagle remained as a striking landmark. While there is no access to the high rock, the small rock needle is accessible. From there, hikers can enjoy a wonderful view of Bad Grund and the surrounding Harz region. At the foot of the stone there is also a small rock stage, which serves as the setting for various celebrations every year on the night of May 1st, the famous Walpurgis Night.

A rock eagle sits on top of the Hübich rock. You can climb up to the top of the rock via a staircase. Below the rock there is an area that is also used for theater performances, festivals, etc.

Bad Grund is located in a romantic open valley, surrounded by deciduous and coniferous trees. It is the oldest of the Upper Harz mountain towns and is always worth a visit. You can start some very beautiful hiking tours from here.

A very nice photo opportunity.
