Brocken Summit

Highlight • Summit

The highest peak in the Harz above the tree line. Certainly not the most exciting climb on a mountain bike, but still a must, simply because it's there. ;-)

The view of the Eckertalsperre is great and when then the downhill down to the Rangerhütte Scharfenstein with up to 20 percent gradient follows - perfect! But beware: hikers and dangerous cross grooves are to be considered!

July 25, 2025,Brockenrunde (Ilsenburg)- Harztrails

Today, I started a beautiful Brocken tour from Ilsenburg.

Overnight: RV parking space Sandtal ✅ (super quiet spot without supplies or supplies, but ideal for starting a mountain bike tour - outdoor pool nearby...)

Out of the RV and into the mountain.
Beautiful ramps, some very blocked and technical, up to the Brocken.
