View of the Rappbode Pre-Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

The quaintness is somewhat lacking due to the Borgenkäfer, but it also ensures far and wide views. Bank was ok.

Circular trail around the Trautenstein dam

Highlight • Trail

For me, a very beautiful tour in the Upper Harz Mountains; narrow paths, top views, and the Scandinavian fjord feeling make the tour special.
