Köthener Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Definitely the most beautiful hut in the Harz! Looks like a church and after the steep ascent invites you to take a contemplative break with the best view. ;)

Friendship Cliff – View into the Selke Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

This small bench is about 50 meters off the path, but the short detour to the Friendship Cliff is definitely worth it. During a break you can enjoy the wonderful view of the Selketal and, with a bit of luck, the Selketalbahn might pass by.

Forest Path Along the Selke River

A beautiful landscape in the Selketal with many cycling and hiking trails. Among other things, you can also find the Harzer Red Mountain Cattle here, a very old breed of cattle.

Asseburg Family Mausoleum (HWN 207)

Highlight • Monument

This old, listed mausoleum, which served as a burial place for the Counts of Asseburg-Falkenstein, is located on the outskirts of Meisdorf, right on the hiking trail. A number of information boards tell the story and there is also a stamp station for the Harz hiking badge (HWN 207) here.
