The "colorful town in the Harz Mountains", Wernigerode, forms the center of the hiking map with the neighboring Harz National Park. The area east of the Brocken (1,141 m above sea level) can be easily hiked via a well-developed network of paths. In addition to marked long-distance hiking trails, there are also hiking suggestions for day trips on the back of the map. A city map of Wernigerode completes the information section, which compiles useful information about the hiking trails and places in the region in a tried and tested way.
