Innerste Dam

Highlight • Lake

The Innerste Dam is a dam in the Innerste region, located in the northwest of the Harz Mountains between Langelsheim, Wolfshagen, and Lautenthal. It was built between 1963 and 1966 and belongs to the Harz Waterworks. Its purposes are drinking water supply, flood protection, low-water elevation, and power generation. The average annual discharge of the Innerste Dam is 60 million cubic meters.

Innerste Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This bridge over the Innerste lies between the Innerste cycle path and the cycle path at the beginning of Langelsheim to Langelsheim. You have a nice view over the innermost!
If you are unsure about cycling on narrow paths, you should perhaps push your bike over the bridge at first, because the bridge is very narrow. But you can drive over it if you don't have a problem with the narrowness 🍀

Innerste Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

For me, the Innerster Cycle Path between Wildemann and Langelsheim is one of the most beautiful cycle paths in the Goslar district. It doesn't run directly along the road, even though it's right next to it for most of its stretch. However, since it runs along the former railway line, the path is secluded enough and lined with trees to allow you to cycle through beautiful nature.

Innerstetalsperre

Highlight • Lake

Good for a road bike tour despite the traffic. The two-lane road is so well developed that overtaken cars usually don't push you very often.

Innerste Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

If you drive around the Innerstetalsperre, you will always come to beautiful swimming areas and beaches, where you can take a break. On hot days you can refresh yourself while bathing in the cool water of the reservoir.

If you fancy a longer break at the dam and would like to try other water sports such as rowing, surfing or sailing, you can spend the night in the campsite by the lake.

Innerste Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

ers from the reservoir across the dam. There is no other dam in the Harz Mountains with a flood protection facility constructed in this way.
If necessary, the water from the Innerste reservoir can be diverted to the neighboring Granetalsperre via an underground water tunnel. In this case, the water has to be pumped uphill about 90 meters, as the Granetalsperre is correspondingly higher.
Although the inner reservoir is used to produce drinking water, the water can also be used for sporting activities. You can swim, sail, fish, windsurf or take a rowboat on and around the lake. On the east bank there is also a campsite not far from the road.
An approximately seven kilometer long circular hiking / cycling path leads around the reservoir of the Innerste dam.

Lautenthal

Highlight • Settlement

The mining town of Lautenthal owes its existence to a miner named Kaspar Bitter, who discovered a rich ore vein on the Kranichsberg around 1530. With some of the silver ore he had found, he went to the then sovereign, who paid him handsomely and prompted him to start mining in the valley of the lute. Three and a half centuries passed, during which every man in the village was connected with the mining industry, its changing ups and downs, its rare times of prosperity and frequent times of need, for better or for worse. Most of the mines ceased operations in 1930/31.
Today a state-recognized climatic health resort in the middle of the Harz Nature Park

Although it was quite cool and the sun didn't manage to displace the clouds, it was a nice November tour on the Innerste cycle path.

We had a lot of fun today as a group of men had driven up the tour with us.
From Lauthental we shot again. And are up again to go down.

First from Lautenthal to Wildemann. Then to Langelsheim and back to Lautenthal. There was a lot going on in the squares. Unfortunately, it wasn't that car-free... while we were on the road: a group of motorcyclists and a total of 6 cars. Bit many exceptions for the short time.

Like every year on the last Sunday in August, there is also this year the "Car-free Innerstetal" campaign day. The road between Wildemann and Langelsheim is then closed to cars and we in Lautenthal right in the middle 😂 In Wildemann at the mountain farm, in Lautenthal at the tourist information and at the dam of the Innerstetalsperre there are …

Very nice tour high above the innermost. Great view!
However, it is mainly recommended for e-bikes, I used up 30% of the battery (i.e. 150 Ah).
