Luchsstein Memorial (Harzer Wandernadel stamp 103)

Highlight • Monument

Here in 1818 the last lynx of the Harz was shot. Since the year 2000 the lynxes are back in the Harz after a settlement project. 😉👍

May 1, 2025,Kleine Harzwanderung bei Seesen mit HWN 103 und 104 oder Aus- u. Weitblicke

Great weather on the holiday – we dug out our Harz stamp booklets, quickly picked a short tour, and off we went.
We set off around 10:30 a.m. We walked through a beautiful mixed forest to the first stamp point, 103 Luchsstein. It wasn't far to the next stamp point, 104, at the Tränkebachhütte, and we took our first break. …

March 29, 2025,✅️Luchsstein (HWN 103) und Tränkebachhütte (HWN 104) Runde von Lautenthal

Today I went back to the Harz Mountains with my hiking buddy Tanja. This time, however, on a relaxed tour with little elevation gain, but with two HWN stamps and one for the Steinway Trail.

Attention: The junction to the Tränkebachhütte (Image 30) cannot be seen directly at the moment, everything in front of it is full of spruce branches.

December 29, 2024,Wanderung um den Großen Trogtaler Berg

Today I went on a short, easy hike around the Grosser Trogtaler Berg. The tour includes the stamping points for HWN 103 (Luchsstein) and 104 (Tränkebachhütte). The weather was very nice, but there was an icy wind. You could see the Innerste Dam well, but otherwise the visibility was not so good.

September 8, 2023,Runde um den Großer Trogtaler Berg ⛰🌞

From the Sternplatz car park it was mostly in the shade, because of the mixed forest 😉 and without any major climbs to the Luchsstein then on to the Tränkebachhütte, from where you have a beautiful view and invite you to take a break. Then we continued to the Öhrenbrunnen and back to the parking lot. 😎🌞

That was the 2nd round for today. A beautiful one with great views and of course the stamps. The forest also has large gaps and clear cuts here. The forest changes New !!!
Tomorrow we'll continue a big round in Ilsenburg!
