July 17, 2021,Wanderung im WeltWald bei Bad Grund 🌲🌎🌳
Finally back in the Harz! After almost 2 years of abstinence, I ventured back to the northernmost low mountain range of Germany.

I chose the mountain town of Bad Grund as my starting base. Not without reason - because the long-distance hiking trail "Harzer BaudenSteig" begins here, because I want to do it in 6 days (plus an additional day …

Today all paths in the world forest 🌲🪵🌳 explored 🥾. At the moment the rhododendrons are blooming in all colors, very impressive, and some of them are powerful 🤭. The kids can also experience a lot there 😉

Many had the same idea today, a visit to the WeltWald near Bad Grund. A worthwhile destination in autumn too.

Trees and shrubs from western and eastern North America, Asia, Europe, West Siberia and Asia, which is one of the largest of its kind in Germany, can be seen in the arboretum. More than 600 species of trees are planted …
