Hiking in the Southern Harz begins right on your doorstep: whether you\u2019re seeking the tranquillity of the forest, love a physical challenge or want to go on a treasure hunt with the whole family \u2013 you\u2019ll find your adventure in Harztor. Our \u2018Over Hill and Valley\u2019 landscape links the climatic health resort of Neustadt with the wild and romantic mixed forests around Ilfeld, Niedersachswerfen, Harzungen and Herrmannsacker.<\/p>

These forests are more than just beautiful: their pure, low-pollen air has been recognised as a therapeutic climate since 1890 and is still valued today for health treatments and relaxation. Experts refer to terpenes \u2013 aromatic compounds found in spruce, pine and beech \u2013 which many people believe have a calming effect. What\u2019s more, on hot days, the dense canopy keeps you pleasantly cool whilst you explore the countryside.<\/p>

Breathe in the fresh air, enjoy sweeping views and find your own path. Here are our three destinations for your break.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tIs hiking boring? Not here! The \u201cHarztor Wanderkinder\u201d (Harztor Hiking Kids) project turns the trail into a playground.

The routes are designed with children in mind \u2013 sometimes you\u2019ll head to the \u2018swing bench\u2019, sometimes through the \u2018eye of the needle\u2019 or across a cow pasture.
