Trail Along the Shore of Reihersee

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

On the eastern edge of the Reihersee, a small trail runs between the dam (wide road) and the shore. In some places there are aisles in the reeds, so that …

Small Clarification Pond East of Reihersee

Highlight • Lake

Today only a small area of water remains of the former sewage pond I. Still a very idyllic and somewhat hidden place. Unfortunately, most of the photos here are of the Heron Lake (Klärteich II) and are therefore incorrectly assigned.

January 13, 2025,Der Reihersee geht immer

Today we took advantage of the sun and drove to Gebhardshagen to walk around the Reihersee as a winter wonderland and collect stamp number 18 from the northern Harz foreland. We also discovered three beautiful Solte pebbles.
The Reihersee is beautiful in every season.

Two days of winter wonderland
☆ Day 2 - Monday:
Birthday children can choose where the hike goes... and my favorite hiking buddy wanted a walk around the Reihersee.
So we walked in the sunshine along crunchy paths and small trails, some of them wonderfully close to the shore of the partially frozen lake. We also found a Happy New …

Well today I was really torn apart, my heart rate never dropped below 140 bpm. My fitness level at 195 meters of altitude was a solid 6, the path on the west side around the lake wasn't the smartest idea either, completely unsuitable for any kind of bike directly by the lake, despite having the best hiking shoes I made …

It could still be a little more fresh air today.
My destination was the heron lake.
Because of the still quite gusty wind I had hoped that I wouldn't necessarily have to go through too much forest. But the hope was not confirmed.
Most of the trees near the shore were quite small. The danger that something could fall on …
