Morgenbrodstal Ditch

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Wonderful, natural single trail along the historic Upper Harz water system. The Siebenwochenklippe with bench invites you to linger.

Grabenbrust Trail

This is exactly my kind of hiking. I'll come back when the trees are back.

Dammgraben Trail

Highlight • Trail

At 25 km, the dam ditch is the longest man-made ditch. Its water once powered the mines in Altenau and Clausthal.
There is a beautiful hiking trail right next to the dam ditch.

Kleiner Gerlachsbach Weir

Highlight • Structure

Further weir at the dammgraben: Here in connection over a weir with the small Gerlachsbach. The water is very clear (attention drinking water) and on an old board you can still discover the dates!

Stieglitzecke Parking Area and Communications Tower

Highlight • Parking

The Stieglitzecke car park is located directly on the Harzhochstraße and is easily recognizable by its characteristic steel-mesh radio masts.

Kleiner Morgenbrotsbach

Highlight • River

The actual ditch begins here with the drainage from the Morgenbrotsbach. It's a dead end that you have to go down from the big weir. Unfortunately, the path is difficult to pass due to windbreaks.

Great Weir and Morgenbrod Hut (HWN 146)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Where the stream flows into the Söse, there is the large weir. This regulates the water balance of the Morgenbrodstaler Graben, which is fed by these two watercourses. The Morgenbrodshütte is located a little above the large weir.
