Stream at the Bauerngraben

Highlight • River

This small trickle provides constant irrigation for the Bauerngraben (farmer's ditch). Unfortunately, the ditch has been dry for years. Opposite, you can see the karst landscape.

Farmer's ditch (episodic lake) (HWN 213)

Highlight • Lake

Nice rest area and stamping point for the Harz hiking pin. Impressive when you have seen both variants (filled and empty lake)! Accessible via part of the Karst hiking trail.
