A stop at the Iberger Albertturm forest restaurant is a must on this hike. After its reopening, it's become a cozy little restaurant with a good selection of food and drinks.

So we started the Easter weekend. A nice round in the western Harz. We defied the bad weather 💨🌧️ and lo and behold it wasn't that bad, the sun 🌥️ showed up too. And we did another good deed today, we saved the poor little guy in picture 31 from the floods of the Kneipp pool.😉
