View of the Rappbode Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the dam you have a wonderful panoramic view. But on weekends it's very crowded here when the weather is nice. No place where you can enjoy the peace!

Rappbode Dam and Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Walking the bridge is really great. Due to the corona, this is currently only possible in one direction, on the dam wall next door you can then go back and see the imposing bridge from the side.

September 30, 2025,Wanderung HZ - Rappbodetalsperre, Talsperre Wendefurth und Harzer Hexenstieg

I start at the main parking lot of the Rappbode Dam. This is also where you access the observation tower and the "Titan RT" suspension bridge. From the tower, you have a beautiful panoramic view all the way to the Brocken. The 458.5 m long suspension bridge leads to the other end of the dam. The return trip is included …

September 27, 2023,2023_09_27 Titan RT

Since we couldn't move into our accommodation until the afternoon, we started this beautiful circular hike straight from home today after a good 2 hour drive.
The suspension bridge is truly impressive. The daring ones had even more excitement with the giant zip line etc.
As soon as we left the bridge, everything around us became quiet. And after the …

Anyone seeking peace and quiet and enjoying hiking will find this trail perfect. Great forest trails and beautiful scenery. Currently, the trail is also suitable for hurdlers due to the many fallen trees 🌲.

June 18, 2025,Hexensteig Rundweg mit Titan Hängebrücke

A beautiful circular tour from Neuwerk (near Elbingerode). The walk over the titanium suspension bridge is a fantastic experience and currently costs from €7.50 per person.

The route is very varied but also physically demanding. The last 3km are quite challenging and include several climbs and many sections with fallen trees that must be climbed over or under. You really …

June 27, 2026,📸 Abschluss Runde 🤩 um Harzdrenalin- Hängebrücke Titan-RT an der Rappbodetalsperre 🤪

📸 This morning we asked ourselves the question? A round of wellness 🧖 sauna 🥵 or a round of hiking 🥾 The question quickly answered itself, because with the prevailing temperatures of 35° and more, it actually makes no difference 🤣
So we got in the car 🚙 and drove towards Elbingrode to visit the world's longest suspension bridge of …

May 24, 2025,Basecamp - Titan - Wendefurth - Hexenstieg

The weather was great in the Harz Mountains. Admittedly, I won't say that tomorrow 😉, but today was absolutely beautiful. We crossed the Titan suspension bridge, which was very pleasant early in the morning, even though there was already quite a bit of hustle and bustle at the Bode Dam. That was quickly forgotten on the hiking trails, though. We …
