The Harz is always worth a trip! Anyone thinking of hiking here is certainly not wrong. But this wonderful cultural landscape is just as beautiful to cycle through. Experience the different facets of northern Germany's highest mountain range and its surroundings - the famous Brocken, the mystical witch scenes, historic towns, Romanesque buildings, traces of the mining era and again and again wide views of the country.

On their 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 Quedlinburg. 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. 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. Your eventful cycle tour in the Eastharz is now over.
Overnight place: Wernigerode
Your cycling tour ends today after breakfast. Your journey home is under your own control.
