Arrive on your own. The colorful city in Harz invites you to take a leisurely stroll through the streets lined with half-timbered houses. A highlight is the market square with the historic town hall. The short ascent to Wernigerode Castle is rewarded with a beautiful view of the city.

Overnight place: Wernigerode

The first stage is all about the spiritual past and present. First, you start with a small detour via the climatic health resort of Ilsenburg, which, with its medieval monastery complex and the Drübeck monastery gardens in front of it, can be considered the gateway to the Romanesque Road. Now heading east again, it goes pleasantly downhill through fields and meadows to Halberstadt. A visit to the cathedral and the Martini Church is definitely worthwhile.

 

Overnight place: Halberstadt

From cathedral city to cathedral city is the motto today. Follow the Bode brook to the nearby UNESCO World Heritage town of Quedlingburg. Enjoy the atmosphere of the cozy old town and the all-round view from the Schlossberg. The collegiate church located up here houses the famous Quedlinburg cathedral treasure and the graves of the first German king, Heinrich I and his wife.

 

Overnight place: Quedlinburg

Even today, the Bode accompanies you part of the way. The witches have left their mark near Thale in the Bodetal. Discover the Hexentanzplatz with witch house during a breather in the cable car. At the Rappbodetalsperre you have the opportunity to walk over the longest suspension bridge in the world (2017m), which opened in 483. Cycle a little uphill, past the Michaelstein monastery with its historic collection of musical instruments to Blankenburg. At the end of the stage you will reach Wernigerode again.

 

Overnight place: Wernigerode

With the Brockenbahn (journey incl. and without bike) you go up to 1.141 meters today. From the highest mountain in northern Germany, also known to witches as "Blocksberg", you can see the national park Harz. From the summit you can hike comfortably downhill to Schierke or 3 Annen-Hohne back to Wernigerode.

Overnight place: Like the day before in Wernigerode

Today the bike takes you to Goslar, the imperial city. The imposing buildings from a wide variety of eras have earned the old town the UNSECO World Heritage title. Also part of the world heritage are today's Rammelsberg visitor mine, which procured valuable ores for the rulers of bygone times, as well as the Oberharzhe water management from the 16th century with a pond and ditch system for generating energy through hydropower that is unique in the world. After these extensive and diverse experiences, the train takes you back to Wernigerode (on your own).
