The Schmelzteich is an artificial lake created in the 16th century in the spa district of the Lower Saxon town of Bad Sachsa in the southern Harz. Today it is the center of the Vitalpark.

Hiking

The melting pond is home to thick carp, just waiting to be fed. In addition, one can insert a relaxed pedal boat ride with children. Wellness enthusiasts hikers can relax in the adjacent health resorts with a well-kept park, relax banks and barefoot path. Or you just sit down in the meadow and enjoy the peace ...
