Königstein (Devil's Wall)

Highlight • Natural Monument

Be sure to visit! Bizarre sandstone formation formed 85 million years ago. From the car park, a comfortable sandy path with steps leads to a viewing platform from which you have a wonderful view of the Harz foothills and as far as Quedlinburg. The path can be extended to a circular path or you can continue hiking the Teufelsmauersteig.

View over Weddersleben and the Teufelsmauer rock formations

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here, you have a beautiful view of Weddersleben and the opposite Mittelsteine of the Teufelsteig trail. A well-maintained staircase leads up or down. On the slope, you can observe sheep and goats grazing.

June 4, 2022,[Harz] Entlang der Teufelsmauer durch das Harzer Vorland

An adventure trip to the Harz Mountains.
Actually, it was supposed to go to Rome for me and Joha over the long weekend. I saw us sitting by the Tiber at sunset and drinking Aperol. Then the airline threw a spanner in the works and canceled our flights. Good advice was expensive now, so we quickly decided on Quedlinburg, with …

Only at the beginning is there a nice stretch along the Devil's Wall. The majority of it is not really attractive.

A very nice hike. At the beginning, unfortunately, bike path with asphalt. Some beautiful paths from the Hamburg coat of arms. Imposing rocks of the Teufelsmauer. The 👑 king stones in particular are very impressive.

August 3, 2021,Rundwanderung Teufelsmauer Weddersleben - Hamburger Wappen - Großvaterfelsen - Teufelsmauer

Oops 🤭
The round has become longer than we actually wanted. 🙈
However, every kilometer was worth it and little Fufu was allowed to travel the last 8 km relaxed in a backpack. 😁
Along the Teufelsmauer in Weddersleben, highly recommended, the Hamburg coat of arms - the ideal place for a break.
The way back was via beautiful, narrow …
