Hahnenklee

	Hahnenklee is in the district of Goslar and is often referred to as Hahnenklee Goslar. If Goslar is where the arts, culture and history can be found, than Hahnenklee is the neighbouring playground for leisure and sports. Only 16 kilometres away from Goslar this idyllic health resort attracts over 100,000 visitors each year to experience its beautiful natural scenery. It is a ramblers dream with trails for all levels from 5 to 25 kilometres, including trails for wheelchair users. You can start some of these trails from the top of the Bocksberg Mountain (726m).
One of the landmarks that you can not help notice is the Stave Church. It was built in 1907/08 and modelled on Norwegian Stave churches. This Stave church is completely built from wood taken around the Harz. It is a stunning building to be admired both inside and outside. There are many musical performances taking place. Check the local tourist board for up to date information. Also the German composer Paul Lincke, who was the creator of the Berlin operetta "Berlin Luft" the hymn of Berlin, spent the last few months of his life here and is buried in the town cemetery.
	The newly open mountain bike park in Hahnenklee is a must for mountain bikers. This mountain bike park is part of "Volsbank Arena Harz", which has a total of over 1,800 kilometre network of mountain bike trails. This organised, well structured mountain bike trails, makes it a fun place to be. You can take the Bocksberg cable car to the summit and descend by bike on one of the 7 trails which cater from beginners to advance. If you want to try something a little different than make the journey down on one of the monster scooters. Bikes and scooters can be hired locally. There is an excellent shop called Boards and Bikes located directly next to the cable car.
If rushing down a mountain is not for you and you prefer two legs to two wheels, than Hahnenklee has many walks to offer. The latest one opened in 2007 and is called the Liebesbankweg (lovers walk). A nice 7 km long circular trail that has 25 individual designed benches in stunning locations overlooking beautiful scenery. It tells the story of marriage and love. The trail meanders along wide paths, natural meadows, and clear lakes and is suitable for all levels. Hahnenklee has a full winter programme, with five pistes of varying difficulties. One is equipped with a snow cannon, so skiing is guaranteed. Tobogganers will have great fun on the 1,500 meter toboggan run
