The health resort Buntenbock is a district of Clausthal-Zellerfeld,
which offers its guests an idyllic location for an original and relaxing
holiday. Allow your body, mind and soul, to breathe again as
you wander through the mountain meadows and forests.
Enjoy the walks and hikes during all seasons around the numerous
ponds of the UNESCO World Heritage “Upper Harz Water
Management“, the famous “Harzer-Hexen-Stieg” and the
new “Harzer Försterstieg” (Ranger walk). All offer you beautiful
landscape adventure.
The keeping of domestic animals particularly horses and goats
were an important part and tradition for the former village and
the workmen in the mining industry. Today you can still see an
impressive flock of goats on your walk to the observation tower
“Kuckholzklippe” (direction Lerbach).
For many years the farmers celebrate the livestock and meadow
festival by taking their traditional Harz Red Cattle to the Buntenbock
Kurpark.
Every two weeks from April to September the village market is
held in the Kurpark, where people offer arts and crafts and home
produced products and specialities.
