RouteXpert Review The Harz is the highest low mountain range in Northern Germany. The area is characterized by vast forests, plateaus that are partly used for agriculture, deeply incised valleys with wild rivers, streams and waterfalls and large and small reservoirs. This makes for many beautiful routes to ride. The asphalt is generally of very good quality. The Harz borders Thuringia where you can also make beautiful rides.
This 360km route is a must-ride and worth 5 stars, I rode it in 2018 and 2020.
You will drive through some of the most beautiful parts of the Harz Mountains, there are many bends in this route and driving experience is therefore required. You will pass several mountain lakes and dams. At the Rappbodetalsperre is the longest suspension bridge (Titan RT) in the world for pedestrians.
Cave enthusiasts can also visit the Baumannshöhle, please note that a tour through these dripstone caves takes about 50-60 minutes.
The route also includes the Kyffhäuser 36, a 3.8 kilometre stretch with 36 bends with an average gradient of 10% and is part of an official street circuit, a paradise for motorcyclists.
Pay attention here because people drive quite fast here, but also check by the police. This route is downhill, so if you have time, also drive uphill. At the bottom of the mountain there is a small biker Café, a popular stop for motorcyclists.
You will pass many villages and towns where there are opportunities to eat and drink, but please note that they are often closed between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM.
Have fun on this ride.

About this region
Bremerhaven (German pronunciation: [ˌbʁeːmɐˈhaːfn̩] (listen), lit. 'Bremener Harbour', Low German: Bremerhoben) is a city at the seaport of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, a state of the Federal Republic of Germany.
It forms a semi-enclave in the state of Lower Saxony and is located at the mouth of the Weser on its eastern bank, opposite the town of Nordenham. Though a relatively new city, it has a long history as a trade port and today is one of the most important German ports, playing a role in Germany's trade.
Wesermünde was a neighboring city created in 1924 through the merger of Geestemünde and Lehe. In 1939, Bremerhaven was incorporated into Wesermünde, but in 1947 the cities were collectively renamed as Bremerhaven and returned to the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen.
