At the small alpine meadow there is an information station of the Harzgeröder Kugelpass, through muscle power you can learn interesting facts.

Before the infestation by the bark beetle, it was a real dream path, now unfortunately a bit bumped. But still worth a round.

There is not much left to see of the site. Nevertheless, it is a beautiful place. Friendly people have set up tree trunks on the small bridge as a place …

July 5, 2024,Glasebacher Stollen (HWN 175) – Fürstenteich Runde von Silberhütte (Anh)
A very nice tour to start a week of hiking in the Harz. First along the Selketal tracks, then on narrow forest paths and repeatedly over colorfully blooming mountain meadows, which are simply beautiful. The mine and mining trail follow and lead to various ponds at the end. The circular route ends again in Silberhütte... unfortunately my navigation stopped shortly …

For the last hike of my short vacation in the Harz Mountains, I walked part of the historic mining trail to Silberhütte and back along the Selke River. Very informative and interesting.

Let's go today to hike a few stamps 🙂. As a result, I also passed the pear tree pond, where our LPG had a bungalow. It's been a long time since I caught sticklebacks there in 1978 as an 8-year-old 😂 and the water for my daily needs for cooking and washing up had to be fetched from a spring, …

After ice and snow at the weekend, the opposite came with endless water and mud.
So I can't complain about not enough variety 😅

Today we hiked mostly on natural trails from Silberhütte to Straßberg... and back along the Selketal-Stieg to Silberhütte. There were also some great trails here that I really enjoyed.
Arrived at the parking lot just as it started to rain - timing is everything 😇
Stayed dry today, so I wonder if it'll be the same tomorrow...?

Today I used my first day of vacation and the good weather to complete the "Kingfisher" mission. After a very bad night, the alarm went off in the morning and I started my hike shortly after 10 a.m. First I went up to the Uhlenköpfe Hänichen (HWN 176) along the Selke. Back at the PP I hiked to "Hellergrund" (HWN …

Beautiful hike in glorious sunshine. Lunch at the Bergschänke Strassberg was excellent, great service despite the full house and the food was very tasty. Advance reservation is advisable.
