This stage starts in the mountain and university town of Clausthal-Zellerfeld and leads via Lautenthal and Wildemann to the old town of Goslar, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

The route leads from Clausthal-Zellerfeld through the mountainous western Upper Harz. The area is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Harz Water Management. Ditch systems, ponds and watercourses accompany the pleasure rider all the way to the mountain towns of Wildemann, Lautenthal and Wolfshagen. Following the traces of Upper Harz mining, not only the history of the miners but also fantastic views become tangible. After the mountain town of Wildemann, the Little Tyrol of the Upper Harz, the route follows the Innerste cycle path through Lautenthal to the Innerste dam. From there, the towns of Langelsheim and Herzog-Juliushütte are passed without significant altitude differences before the tour ends at the historic Imperial Palace in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Goslar.

Directions

We start our tour in the mountain and university town of Clausthal-Zellerfeld at Thomas-Merten-Platz. Nearby, from May to October, the Upper Harz mountain farmers' market takes place on Thursdays from 6 p.m., where many regional products and local handicrafts are sold. We follow Spiegelthaler Street along the Waldweben campsite downhill through Spiegelthal to Wildemann, the Little Tyrol of the Upper Harz. In the town, we turn right onto Hindenburg Street and, after leaving the town, turn right onto the Innerste cycle path, which also runs along an old railway track. We cycle enjoyably along the Innerste, which springs near Clausthal-Zellerfeld and flows into the Leine near Sarstedt after 95 kilometers. For about two kilometers we cross Lauthental to shortly thereafter follow the Innerste cycle path again, which leads us directly along the Innerste dam. Here, a short detour to the dam wall is recommended, from where we have the best view of the water. We then cycle through Langelsheim, cross the B6 and ride above the federal road along Astfeldberg towards Herzog-Juliushütte. From there, we follow the Höhlenwagenweg above the railway line to Goslar, where we reach the Imperial Palace, the destination of our stage, via Bäringer Street and Markt Street.
