A lovely, wide path that is easy for two people to walk along side by side. It meanders picturesquely through the landscape with a magnificent panoramic view. With inclines and declines that really get the circulation going as we walk briskly and unprotected from the sun.

September 10, 2023,Harz Rundwanderung: Auf dem Höhenweg von Sankt Andreasberg

After stopping the hike on the high-altitude trail around Sankt Andreasberg on July 30th, 2023, it quickly became clear to me that this circular trail would be put under my hiking boots again as soon as possible.
The good weather forecast for this weekend sounded very euphoric and I promised myself great views of the formerly free mountain town.

July 14, 2023,Höhenweg St Andreasberg

The path was characterized by many far-reaching views, green meadows and walking corners (that's what I call the newly sprouting forests with dead wood) It went on gravel roads but also along many narrow paths. A lot of flowers bloomed and the raspberries hung ripe on the side of the road. There are enough parking spaces. And then we were …

A very nice tour, but I wouldn't do it in summer because many sections of the route are without shade. In addition, the meadows will no longer bloom. Good physical condition helps.

August 11, 2025,St. Andreasberger Höhenwanderweg 11 AUG 2025

Two weeks of hiking in the Harz Mountains with a "base camp" at the Braunlage campsite.
Today, the St. Andreasberg High-Altitude Hiking Trail was on the agenda. It can be started at three points – we started at Jordanshöhe. There's also a parking lot there. Jordanshöhe can be reached from St. Andreasberg via Clausthalerstrasse, about 500 meters past the town …

May 29, 2025,Höhenwanderweg rund um Sankt Andreasberg

The approximately 17-kilometer-long high-altitude trail around Sankt Andreasberg is incredibly beautiful. It leads over hills and valleys, as well as through meadows and forests around Sankt Andreasberg. New perspectives of the town and the surrounding hills are constantly emerging. We caught a good time. The mountain meadows are in full bloom. Relics from the mining era can be found here …
