Short description

This stage starts in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Goslar and leads along the northern edge of the Harz through the spas of Bad Harzburg and Ilsenburg to Wernigerode, the colorful town in the Harz region.

Directions

The route starts at the historic Imperial Palace in Goslar and runs along the northern edge of the Harz through the spa town of Bad Harzburg. Expansive views of the undulating Harz foothills accompany the pleasure cyclist to the tranquil Ilsenburg, which can be reached via a varied gravel path. In Eckertal, the former inner-German border is crossed with the Ecker. Past the trout pond and castle park, the route continues above the Ilsenburg district of Drübeck. A detour to the former Benedictine abbey Protestant Center Kloster Drübeck is worthwhile. The Wernigeröder district of Darlingerode is also passed before heading over forest paths to the no longer existing Augustinian hermit monastery Kloster Himmelpforte, and finally reaching Wernigerode, where the stage ends at the marketplace.
