Highlight • Summit

The highest peak in the Harz above the tree line. Certainly not the most exciting climb on a mountain bike, but still a must, simply because it's there. ;-)

Titan RT Suspension Bridge (Harzer Wandernadel Special Stamp)

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

Until my arrival at the Rappbodetalsperre I did not know that there is such a spectacular suspension bridge. What was built there as a public attraction is definitely worth a visit. The whole paired with an impressive mountain landscape.
