Traditional New Year's Eve Torchlight Hike

Tips & Advice

• Wear sturdy, closed-toe hiking boots as the terrain can be uneven, especially in the dark.
• Dress in warm layers, including a hat and gloves, as winter evenings in the Harz mountains can be quite cold.
• Arrive at the meeting point a little early to secure a good spot and get acquainted with the area before the hike begins.
• Bring a small backpack for essentials like water, and perhaps a small snack, though no food is explicitly mentioned.
• Check the weather forecast before you go and be prepared for potential winter conditions.
