Loop
Romantic table mountain above the potash heap. Partly fantastic paths and wonderful views up to the Brocken await you on this tour. If you walk along the edge of the Ohmberg, you should do this with care. The step edge of the Ohmberg, which is rocky to the north, is very steep and not secured. At the highest point you have a beautiful view of the potash heap up to the Brocken. On this tour, with luck, from June to August you can marvel at the quite rare Turk's cap lily - just to look at, sniff and take photos. The potash mountain has been idle since 1990 and is now crossed by watercourses, which is why it is also called "Ayers Rock von Bischofferode".
