Stamping point 56 / Rappbodeblick Trautenstein

The stamp site is located on a forest road above the dam wall of the Rappbode reservoir on the Harz Witches« Trail from Trautenstein to Königshütte.

The Trau­ten­stein branch of the Harz­klub has set up a bench in front of the stamp box. From the­re you have a won­derful view of the 24 meter high and 134 meter long dam wall. Pre-dams are used to pre-clean the water of debris and tur­bi­di­ty. The water is dam­med up in the pre-dams and then flows through the over­flows into the stream and on into the main dam. 

The best start­ing point is the hiking par­king lot in the cen­ter of Trau­ten­stein. Fol­low the sign­posts of the Harz­klub branch asso­cia­ti­on along the right bank of the Rapp­bo­de and after a short climb you will reach the Tra­ge­burg HWN 52. From the­re you hike on the Har­zer Hexen­stieg over the dam wall, fol­low the wide forest path to the right and after a short climb you will reach the stam­ping station.
