Rappbode Dam and Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Walking the bridge is really great. Due to the corona, this is currently only possible in one direction, on the dam wall next door you can then go back and see the imposing bridge from the side.

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the dam you have a wonderful panoramic view. But on weekends it's very crowded here when the weather is nice. No place where you can enjoy the peace!

Today, instead of just drinking a coffee in town, we went to the Harz to quickly get the special stamp on the Titan suspension bridge... and complete the Harzer-Hexen-Stieg stamp booklet.

But despite a lot of people, we got our tickets quickly and didn't have to wait long at the entrance. Then they crossed the bridge with …

We actually came for a concert tomorrow evening at the Thale Mountain Theater.
Since the rain was taking a break, we decided to try Harzdrenalin.

Then we made a little loop around it, and the tour was complete 😅
We were also excited …

The Rappbodetalsperre is the highest in Germany. The suspension bridge over the reservoir is the longest of its kind. After crossing the reservoir over the suspension bridge, we did a small circular hike to the Stemperhaus. This is a managed, rustic charcoal hut.
