Unfortunately, the Arche Nebra Visitor Center is currently closed until around June 2023! 😡😭But while I'm here, I'll at least look at it from the outside, and the hike to where the disc was found is also part of it.

After we were strongly discouraged from hiking this route by concerned farmers, we dared to do it anyway. None of the scenarios described happened and it was beautiful. Adventurous - but worth it!

With the nice weather I couldn't stay inside and had to go outside and take a quick walk around the corner.
The last stretch around Bock was quite overgrown - I followed a highlight but instead of a single trail there are more game trails that people have used to get a view of the cliffs.

Very nice tour up to kilometers 4.27 to 5.00.
The path is practically non-existent, a lot of brambles, don't forget your machete 😉

The Unstruttal, the picturesque Nebra and the paths around the legendary sky disk. Very nice hike with muddy ground, but very nice Sunday weather. Arrival and departure by bus and train. Highly recommended!
