View from Vogelbergklippen of Bleicherode

Highlight • Viewpoint

What a panoramic view of Bleicherode, it's a shame that the big beech trees were felled. But of course the free cliff also has its charm.

Well, if the route is "moderate", I'll eat PINE CONES...😱👀👀
It's quite demanding, two very long and steep ascents.... but a very beautiful tour with awesome views, the Heinleide and its forest are dreamy...👀👀👀👀 unfortunately three out of six stamps were damaged...😡😡😡😡

Escape from Clausthal-Zellerfeld... bad weather and town festival 🤪.
So, towards the sun 🚙 always towards Thuringia... quite windy but dry 👍.
From the free hiking parking lot, we first headed towards Kuhbrunnen, over paths that no longer exist and improvised bridges... the dog preferred to go around the outside through the water right away... clever boy 🐶.
The well …

Hiked this tour yesterday, we were very surprised at how beautiful this tour was. Even the city of Bleicherode is worth a trip.

A beautiful hike in the Eichsfeld region, enjoying perfect autumn hiking weather. The intense, opulent autumn colors often made us stop and simply marvel. The sweet scent of the dry autumn leaves evoked childhood memories, and the act of building leaf burrows came alive again.

Another hike we did before the invention of "touringen" (hiking).

May 24, 2026,Pfingstsonntag: Bleicheröder Berge

Touring again, on Whit Sunday I chose the Bleicheröder Mountains.
These shine with beautiful distant views over the entire South Harz, from west to east right up to the Brocken.

In addition, a beautiful one-and-a-half-kilometer ramp that went steadily uphill through the Holundertal, with partially very sunny and steep descents, first to Mönchborn and later down to Bleicherode.

Very nice route, easy to walk, although the descent to the Vogelberg cliffs requires a good profile on the soles of your shoes. The views towards the Harz are unique.
