Discover the region

Allstedt is located on the edge of the Harz Mountains and is characterised by a breathtaking landscape. The town lies at the confluence of the Helme River and the Unstrut River and thus offers a unique combination of nature and city experiences.

One of Allstedt's most famous sights is Allstedt Castle, which can look back on a long history. It was built in the 13th century and served as a residence for various noble families and as a prison during the GDR era. Today it houses a museum with many interesting exhibits.

Another cultural highlight is the collegiate church of St. Johann Baptist, which was built as early as the 9th century and contains many historical works of art.

For nature lovers, there are numerous outdoor activities such as hiking or cycling through the idyllic Harz mountains - the seasons of spring to autumn are particularly beautiful.

Allstedt also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Be sure to try the regional specialities such as Thuringian dumplings or grilled bratwurst - a real treat!

If the weather doesn't cooperate, a visit to the "Naturbad Rosarium" adventure pool or one of the many museums in the area is worthwhile.

All in all, Allstedt is definitely worth a trip and offers something for every taste. Visit this picturesque town in the heart of Germany and let its beauty enchant you!

    Die Strecke ist etwas anspruchsvoller und an zwei Stellen geht es auch eine ganze Weile steil bergauf aber trotzdem war es eine schöne Strecke. Die vorgegebene Route war am Ende leider sehr zugewachsen. Dort sollte man dann lieber einen anderen Weg unten lang gehen. Es gab auf dem Weg zwei Stempelstellen und ganz viele Brombeersträuche voller Beeren.

    Sehr schöne Gegend, aber den auf der Karte verzeichneten Weg kann man nicht mehr nehmen. Es gibt aber genug parallele Wege. Super zum Pilze sammeln und auch eine Menge Kräuter und Holunder findet sich.

    Der Weg ist sehr schön, vielfach durch Wiesen-Waldlandschaft oder artenreiche Wälder sowie der sehenswerten Ruine Grillenburg. Achtung: Die Karte stimmt nicht mit der Wegbeschreibung überein (insbesondere von Obersdorf über Pölsfeld zum Zollhaus; Stand 11.4.2021). Die Wegbeschreibung ist aber leicht anhand der Ausschilderung nachzuvollziehen. Also: Wegbeschreibung in Text beachten, Karte ignorieren!

    Bin (zum Teil) die Strecke von Goslar nach Eisleben gelaufen. Der Weg ist sehr schön und führt einmal östlich am Harz vorbei. Dort empfiehlt es sich die Stempel zu sammeln die überall auf dem Weg liegen und mit denen man sich die Harzer Wandernadel verdienen kann. Wenn man aber aus dem Harz raus ist verliert die Etappe schnell an Reiz. VORSICHT ist geboten beim Abschnitt zwischen Wippra und Annarode. Der Weg ist dort zum einen schlecht ausgeschildert und kurz vor Annarode EXTREM zugewuchert. Wer eine Machete dabei hat kein Problem allen anderen empfehle ich dringend einen Umweg. (Stand August 2020)
