The natural ascent can be quite a problem in bad weather, but every meter is worth it.
At the end the wolf station waits ✌️

Stamp point, refuge and rest area, memorial stone for fallen forest workers in the First World War, Harz water shelf with weir.
Definitely a highlight and rightly a hallmark of the HWN👍

Today we went again to collect stamps (133, 134, 135, 149, and 221) in the Harz mountains and then there was a monster windbag 😋, because unfortunately I didn't make it.

At 8:45 a.m. I started my first hike today in cold 4°C and clear skies. The path up to the Wolfwarte was very rocky and in places very slippery due to the water that ran down the mountain over the hiking trail. Before the hike I always look at the elevation profile so that I can hike around it so …

Today, I had five Harz Hiking Badge stamps planned. I hadn't realized that the "HWN 149 Kleine Oker" had been relocated. I only noticed on site that there was no longer a stamp station, and after researching, I saw that the new HWN 149 is in Altenau on the Mühlenberg (HWN 149 Altenauer Herzweg Mühlenberg).
Anyone who, like me, still …

Spring could come slowly and the snow disappear 🙄 the tour was quite exhausting due to the snow and slush. But at least 5 more stamps in the booklet. The warning that komoot gives for a section should actually be taken seriously! With the flattened slippery snow it was borderline to go down the piece. It's certainly easier without snow, …

Huhu, let's go to the 4th hike this year....a great path, very quiet...unfortunately a hiking trail was closed and I had to take a detour that was difficult....it was the Magdeburger Weg 🤣 🤣👍.....but otherwise I can only recommend it....have a great men's day 😀🙃

What a wonderful tour 😍
Torfhaus / Altenau remains, despite extreme forest dieback, my absolute favorite hiking area in our Harz ❣️

Showing Translation

Short visit to the Upper Harz Mountains and at least a short tour between Torfhaus and Altenau.
