Harz

Harz straddles the wooded ridges of the Harz Mountains in Lower Saxony, a setting that has shaped this upland area through forestry, mining and mountain travel. The terrain here belongs to the Upper Harz, where reservoirs, forest and moorland reflect a long tradition of water management in the mountains. The Upper Harz Water Management System, part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, preserves ponds, ditches and waterways built to support historic ore mining. To the east, Harz National Park reaches towards the Brocken, the range’s highest summit. Move on to other webcams in Lower Saxony to compare landscapes and mountain settings around the Harz.
