UPPER HARZ MOUNTAINS<br />

Motorbike Holidays<br />

in <strong>the</strong> Upper Harz<br />

Mountains<br />

The time has passed when <strong>the</strong> Harz Mountains were only a place <strong>for</strong><br />

outings by families and hikers. Today <strong>the</strong> Upper Harz Mountains region<br />

in particular is a paradise <strong>for</strong> bikers and motorcycle enthusiasts.<br />

Be it <strong>the</strong> tempting rides on sharp-curves and winding roads of<br />

<strong>the</strong> most nor<strong>the</strong>rly of Germany's low mountain ranges or <strong>the</strong> motorbike-friendly<br />

accommodations – <strong>the</strong> Upper Harz Mountains are<br />

purely and simply <strong>the</strong> draw <strong>for</strong> motorcyclists from all over Germany.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> Upper Harz Mountains motorcyclists can prove <strong>the</strong>ir skills in <strong>the</strong><br />

saddle on quite a number of mountain routes and meet kindred spirits<br />

at nearly every parking area along <strong>the</strong> uphill and downhill routes. The<br />

meet-up place <strong>for</strong> bikers at Torfhaus, <strong>for</strong> example, is famous.<br />

Day <strong>for</strong> day numerous motorcyclists will be found at this large-scale<br />

parking area at an altitude of 812 metres (directly on <strong>the</strong> main road,<br />

Bundestrasse 4, between Bad Harzburg and Braunlage with a direct<br />

view of Mount Brocken).<br />

Some accommodations and campgrounds in <strong>the</strong> Upper Harz Mountains<br />

also make special offerings that bear in mind <strong>the</strong> wishes of each<br />

and every motorcyclist – from secure parking sheds <strong>for</strong> that beloved<br />

bike to <strong>the</strong> providing of accessories <strong>for</strong> motorbike care and a<br />

proper biker supper with steaks and Harz Mountain sausage.<br />

Incidentally: Sankt Andreasberg is especially popular with sidecar drivers.<br />

Among o<strong>the</strong>r things, <strong>the</strong> Winter Sidecar Driver Meet-up takes<br />

place during <strong>the</strong> Winter Festival in January.<br />
