April 28, 2026, Grenzweg (Former Border Trail) to Wurmberg

Very steep but special path upwards towards the Wurmberg. You climb quickly and also quickly enjoy particularly beautiful views over the rest of the Harz.

It's a perfect place to take a long break after a strenuous climb up the Wurmberg. The view opens up over the reservoir and the surrounding Harz landscape, including the Brocken and Achtermannshöhe mountains.
