W 3 The Harz forest tour

Cliffs and panoramic vistas! The routes offer grandiose views of the Brocken and across the northern Harz foothills. They lead you through deep valleys and onto numerous rocky outcrops. Ilsefälle, Froschfelsen, Zeterklippen, Ottofelsen and Paternosterklippe – their names remind us of legends and traditional stories.

Starting point of the routes

Car park at the Eichberg 1 / Corner Himmelpforte, Wernigerode. Official: end of the public road (Ilsetal) in Ilsenburg.
