What people are saying about Harz

When the bus arrived at 9.00 am we were relaxed and happy that only the 3 of us were the passengers. The day's destination Bad Lauchstädt, Walkenried monastery ruins, Torfhaus combined with a hike, Ilsenburg and finally Wernigerode, who would have thought that we could do all this. Even the weather was great. We are happy to recommend this trip to the Harz Mountains. Catherine
