Good opportunity for free parking. It's not that far to the Hexentanzplatz either, especially since you walk along beautiful viewpoints and the wolves.

From here you have a fantastic view of the Bode Valley. The name of the hill is reminiscent of the head forester La Viers, who was the highest-ranking forestry official in the Prussian province of Saxony for the Harz forest areas in the 19th century. La Viers, possibly of Huguenot descent, often hunted in this area. In view of the onset of Harz tourism, he suggested the creation of hiking trails very early on and even before the Harz Club was founded.

When we were on our way back from the Prinzensicht, we suddenly heard wolves howling 😱 Dude, all the things that went through my head 🙈, until my husband reminded me that the animal enclosure at the Hexentanzplatz is nearby 😂 We have …
