Harz National Park

Harz National Park is located in Germany and was founded in 1990. In this park is Mount Brocken and part of the Harz mountain range. By the way, Mount Broken is the highest point in Northern Germany, its height is 1142 meters. Almost all the time, the top of the mountain is hidden by fog, so there are many legends about the mountain, for example, about witches who gather there. This story has so captured the imagination of some Germans that every year there is a show called Walpurgis Night, which symbolizes the Sabbath.

Also, the attractions of the park are stalactite caves, a botanical garden, a narrow-gauge railway with an ancient steam locomotive. Its length is more than 130 kilometers and it can be reached on Mount Broken.
