Braunlage Nature Myth Trail

Discover stations of fairy tales and legends

Hiking in the Harz Mountains is also a wonderful experience for children. Mountains, forests, ponds and lakes show themselves in their fullness and hiking in the fresh air can strengthen the body, mind and soul of the little ones. Perfect if the kids have fun and games during the hike. This is exactly what the Nature Myth Trail offers with its ten stations. The whole family can discover and learn exciting things about the world of fairy tales and myths up close and digitally.

What is the myth of the "wolf" all about? Who would like to tell their own fairy tale in a small ancient theatre? Texts chiselled in stone encourage you to do so. What is the myth behind the spruce tree's health-promoting and healing effect on adults and children? What do you feel when you take a seat on the wooden loungers and let the trees take effect on you? And perhaps the "wishing tree" will fulfil a wish or two!
