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 …

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

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

Glasebach Adit (HWN 175)

Highlight • Historical Site

Beautiful stamping point for the Harz hiking pin with a rest area. We particularly like it here in summer, as the area is completely in the cool shade.

Today we went on a guided hike on the traces of mining in the Harz Mountains. It was organized by the Harz Hiking Nobility.
Our hiking guide Helmut III. guided us and told a lot about mining. 105 hikers took part in the hike.
Arriving back at the Glasebach mine after the hike, refreshments were also taken care of.

A very nice tour and very beautiful highlights, especially in autumn.

A nice round, and the highlight was the bockwurst at the twins 😉😉 of the Glasebach mine.

Yesterday, after a stressful week, we spontaneously drove to the Birnbaumteich pond.
Today we lazed around all day and started the mega hike after dinner 😅
We had to be careful not to step on a toad 🫣
