Family vacation in the Harz Mountains

Yes, in the miniature park with its 60 models. Sights such as the imperial palace in Goslar, the castle in Wernigerode, the collegiate church in Quedlinburg or the mighty cathedral in Halberstadt can be marvelled at. And between all the sights worth seeing, the miniature narrow-gauge railway whizzes up to the Brocken summit.

After your visit to the ‘Little Harz’, head to the Bürgerpark. The children play in one of the numerous playgrounds and the parents stroll through the park's themed gardens.

Afterwards, everyone meets up for a family picnic on one of the many meadows?

There are plenty of playgrounds in Wernigerode and the surrounding area. Here are our recommendations.

Many other places with cool playgrounds can be found on our children's city map.

We often hear this question at our tourist information centre. For this reason, we have compiled all the activities for children in a children's city map.

You can download the children's city map. We would also be happy to send it to you.

There's always action in the Schierker Feuerstein Arena. In summer there is a bouldering wall and a roller skating rink where you can let off steam. Bouncy castles and lots of toys complete the offer.

In winter, of course, there is ice skating. Ice disco, curling and the Schierker winter sports weeks with ice carnival are highlights in the winter events calendar.
 

here is so much to discover in the Harz National Park. We can't even list it all here.

A few recommendations from us:
Löhwenzahn discovery trail in Drei Annen Hohne, nature experience centres in Braunlage, Schierke, ..., guided tours on various topics with the rangers of the national park, nature experiences on hiking trails through the primeval forest of the Harz, museum on nature and history in the Brockenhaus, and, and, ...

Here, even the most averse to hiking become stamp collectors. Collect stamps in the Harz Mountains with the Harzer Wandernadel and become a hiking princess or prince. Good prospects for your family hike.
