Hausherzberger Pond (Bathing Lake)

Highlight • Lake

Here you can jump into the water for free during your tour. By the way, bathing is permitted in almost all of the 60 ponds around Clausthal-Zellerfeld, unless it is expressly forbidden by signs.

The old railway line is excellent to drive. However, there are few turns to reach or leave the route on the way.

Brockenbahn Steam Railway

Highlight • Monument

Here on Goetheweg you drive right next to the rails and thus have the opportunity to observe and photograph the great, old HSB locomotives up close.

Brocken Summit

Highlight • Summit

The highest peak in the Harz above the tree line. Certainly not the most exciting climb on a mountain bike, but still a must, simply because it's there. ;-)
