This picturesque loop trail winds through the tranquil mountain forests surrounding Schulenberg in the Upper Harz. Starting from the village, the trail passes traditional mountain huts such as the Kote and leads up to forested heights at the Riesenbachskopf and the Goslar border. Dense coniferous forests line the forest trails and provide fresh Harz mountain air along the entire route. Nearby is the Okertalsperre reservoir, beneath whose water level the old village of Schulenberg once lay. Sturdy footwear makes walking on the unpaved forest trails easier.
