Three mountain huts, two observation towers and all in one hiking day! You should also enjoy the varied landscape. After the folding and uplift of the Harz from a primeval sea, volcanism began. The Großer and Kleiner Knollen near Herzberg are genuine volcanic cones. The 3rd stage of the BaudenSteig leads up to the Großer Knollen and the Knollen mountain hut (687 m above sea level). A panorama-rich destination – in good weather the view reaches as far as the Großer Inselsberg in the Thuringian Forest. The mountain hut has been operated by the same tenants for over 30 years. The hosts keep careful records of how often visitors come up here. One hiker made almost 3000 visits. The stage continues to the Großer Knollenkreuz and the idyllic Lutter valley. Then up to the Hohen Kummel. From the Bismarck tower, on clear days, there is a fantastic view of well-known mountains such as Großer Knollen, Hanskühnenburg, but also Saint Andreasberg and the Oder reservoir. At the mountain hut at the Bismarck tower, homemade cakes and many other delicacies are served with a dreamlike view! Children have fun with the raccoons. In Bad Lauterberg, you should definitely end the day in the Kirchberg thermal baths or the Vitamar adventure pool.
