The Harz will move you - regardless of whether you are on tour with a mountain bike, or prefer running, scuba diving, rock climbing, sailing, hiking, Nordic walking, paragliding, inline skating or skiing. Here you will find fantastic conditions for your outdoor activities. You will also find ideal opportunities for less energetic sports such as fishing or golf - in the heart of Germany.
