This small beautiful round has formally imposed itself for the day of departure. Unfortunately, many others thought so too. A bit too busy for my taste, but it was definitely still within limits. Absolutely to suggest!!! Unfortunately, the photos got totally mixed up when importing them. 🤷🏼♀️
If you love nature, this is the right place for you. However, sturdy shoes and surefootedness are essential. The path sometimes goes over roots, a solid forest path or wooden walkways over the moor.
For the 2nd time in the Harz Mountains and I had to do a lap around the Oderteich. That was my absolute highlight in 2020, mainly because of the many small biotopes along the way that you could discover...... In addition, this year the stark difference. The effects of the warm and dry summer can be felt everywhere, water is in short supply. Nevertheless, this time it was a nice and varied round and the next time I'm in the Harz Mountains, I'll stop by again and hope that there will be enough water again..
At the end of the short visit to the Harz Mountains, a short, frosty (-7 ° C) hike around the Oderteich. If you start early on a large parking lot for hikers, the pond can be completely circled once. The path around it is very rustic - i.e. sometimes very rooty. But that also makes the path interesting again. Conclusion: Even if the circumnavigation is only very short, it is a very worthwhile goal. Therefore 5 out of 5 stars!
A wonderful short route in bright sunlight.
From 08.08.2021 8:00 a.m., the corresponding video will be available on YouTube on our "JozziLike" channel.
Mass rush in the Harz ... good that we are going early enough. On the way back, it jammed in all the parking lots!
A nice tour, also suitable for children, as the path has many roots or bridges. So not a hike but an adventure trail, there is a lot to discover. Not really suitable for the stroller, the elderly should be sure-footed. The last part to the waterfall can be shortened, but this is still a real adventure, because there it goes downhill and uphill on many small winding paths.
