Routes to the Brocken - from Ehrenfriedhof

On the shortest route to the highest elevation of the Harz - the Brocken. The signposted hiking trail starts at the "Ehrenfriedhof" parking lot on the B4 between Torfhaus and Oderbrück and leads relatively gently uphill past the Ehrenfriedhof. Following the signs, you reach the Dreieckiger Pfahl, the border between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt. On the Kolonnenweg, the path continues quite steeply on a paved surface, which is also suitable for inexperienced hikers. When you reach the Brockenbahn tracks, the hike follows the Goetheweg along the tracks up to Brockenstraße. The entire hiking trail is surrounded by beautiful nature and great views over the Harz.
