Sofa Cliff

Highlight • Natural Monument

The "sofa cliff" was by no means the result of natural erosion, but the work of hardworking stonecutters from bygone days. The stair-like ascent and the good view - when …

Little Bastion

Highlight • Natural Monument

Beautiful rock that can also be walked on. But always with caution ⚠️. There is always a risk of falling on rocks! If you keep that in mind, a hike here is very eventful for the senses.

I never would have thought that the tour could be so beautiful. Very varied and with many highlights.

February 11, 2024,Sofaklippe – Bodensteiner Klippenplateau Runde von Bodenstein

Unfortunately the weather wasn't so nice today, fog and light rain ☔️! The storm and rain of the last few weeks made it a challenge! Some of the paths are very difficult to find, which requires a lot of testing due to forestry vehicles!! The tour therefore had a special appeal.

Since I've been suffering from a nasty cold 🤧 since Thursday, it was finally time to get some fresh air.

I'm currently battling a Harz and stamp phobia, so I headed to Bodenstein in the Harz foothills...well, anyway 😉. This tour, in a similar format, was recommended to me again by Komoot...maybe we'll become friends someday 🙄😅.

The Bodensteiner cliffs - I'm drawn there again and again. You already know: the photo markers do not show the real locations, they are due to the story

November 4, 2023,Bodensteiner Klippen - Runde ab Sehlde durch den goldenen Herbstwald

In the golden autumn weather, the four of us hiked the Bodenstein cliffs again today - this time the other way around.
This cliff area always impresses me.
And the forest showed itself in its most beautiful colors today.
It was really fun again!

April 13, 2024,Zum Chillen aufs Sofa...Bodensteiner Klippen

Beautiful area, the Bodenstein cliffs. 🤩
The tour was a mix of scrambling, climbing over countless trees, looking for paths, turning back in no man's land because, unlike on Komoot, there was no path. 😅
But it was fun and I would definitely recommend it.
I started at the hiking car park on the L 500 in front of Bodenstein. …
