From here, you have a beautiful view of Weddersleben and the opposite Mittelsteine of the Teufelsteig trail. A well-maintained staircase leads up or down. On the slope, you can observe sheep and goats grazing.

🧙‍♀️ The E.M.T.I. Extreme Hiking team is kicking off the Harz Marches in 2025 with the New Year's hike on January 25th.

💡The idea came from Marcus Tugendheim, an ambitious person - once with the vision of bringing his own brand E.M.T.I. onto …

This time a Harz march as a family outing with the children.

In December last year, hiking friends @Lutz Rohne, @Michael and I registered for the 20-kilometer New Year's hike "Harzmarsch" organized by E.M.T.I Extremwandern.
My participation was a first, as I had only read about such organized marches and seen a few in the community.
After we reached Quedlinburg and organized our breakfast in a bakery near the parking lot, we …

Today at 8:45 a.m. we started in starting group 3.🥾
3 girls and I (a last resort 🙄) hiked the first E.M.T.I. hike in this still fresh year of 2025 🥳.
Everything was super organized again today.👍🏻
And the weather was great too 😄.
In short - we are already looking forward ☺️ to the next E.M.T.I. hike 🥾!

My first time taking part in a Harz march... a short 20 km in fantastically sunny spring weather in January. Starting group 6 and I met Andy and Alis there.
I started with the girls from my ILC crew.
Well, it was supposed to be a slow, relaxed tour.

Showing Translation

First (small) hike after a long break and for this year. 14 degrees and sunshine... and that at the end of January 🤔😇
But this is perfect hiking weather... and gratefully accepted.
The highlight is undoubtedly the Devil's Wall.
