Stapenberg (HWN 033)

Highlight • Summit

Easy to reach from the cold valley, but one of the less beautiful stamping points. Few rest areas on the mountain and on the way there.

March 9, 2025,🥾 Runde über den langen Ziegen🐐berg (NSG🦉) 🌞
To warm up, we went with @Manuuu🌳🚶‍♂️🚲🌲 to the (unspectacular) Stapenberg 😰 and then took a more relaxed route over the beautiful Ziegen- & Struvenberg ridge to Heimburg. Great round, good weather (unfortunately visibility was limited today by the Sahara dust) and somehow there was just a lack of green everywhere 💚😉
Three more stamps also found their place in …

Today our tour started from Heimburg first to Altenburg (HWN 84). From up there you have a great view of the Harz and Harz foreland. Then it was on the ridge path to Benzingerode. This path with many animals is fantastically beautiful. Herds of sheep, goats, cows, there was a lot to see. After a relaxing break we continued, past …

Unfortunately there were no leaves on the 🌳 🌳 🌳 but it is only the beginning of March ☝️But after a short time it was too warm for a sweater and jacket and we walked in a t-shirt 😁. …

Yesterday the weather was nicer but we didn't get up early. So in the afternoon we went for a walk with mum for about 4 km and in the evening we pursued our other hobby, running 11.5 km 🙈.

Today I invite you to a beautiful hike in the northern Harz Mountains from Heimburg over the Stapenberg, Benzingerode and back on the Kammweg. The weather was absolutely beautiful and the views were really impressive. But the climbs are very strenuous and after 460 meters of altitude you're kind of knocked out... Be sure to take something to drink and …

Only this group can understand why you let the alarm clock wake you up on Sundays and don't sleep in 😅

I put off this hike for a long time and my advice for Nico today was "Take your sticks with you!!!"

It was meant to be a short, pleasant tour to kick off spring: 14 km, less than 400 meters of elevation gain... Under a bright blue sky, we set off from Benzgerode, first climbing up to the Ziegenberg ridge. A truly idyllic path, but at 14°C in the sunshine, it was almost too warm 🥵 Our first destination was the …

A wonderful hike in the most beautiful spring weather ☀️

We walked along blossoming fruit trees. We also liked the great view of the blooming rapeseed fields. 💛

Highly Recommended!
