View of Carlshausturm

Highlight • Viewpoint

The tower can be seen from afar through the cleared forest. Where once there were trees, all kinds of flowers are now blooming. A pure splendor of colour.

The Stierbergsteich is a beautiful, quiet place in the middle of the forest. It is a must on a tour from Sophienhof! Stamp number 48 of the Harz hiking pin is located in the refuge.

Very nice round trip from the Ziegen-Alm to the Stierbergteich. Afterwards, be sure to stop off at the Ziegen-Alm for some cake (homemade).
