Harz Holiday Region - Unique Nature and Historic Half-Timbered Towns

With a suitable holiday flat to suit your individual wishes and requirements as accommodation, you can discover the enchanting nature and the diverse sights of the Harz region. After all, there is much more to a perfect holiday or short break than just the accommodation itself. Attractions, sights and exciting experiences are also reason enough for a relaxing holiday in the Harz. For hikers, cyclists or mountain bikers, the Harz Mountains are a welcome opportunity for variety, action and adventure amidst the species-rich nature of the Harz National Park. In the vast unspoilt forests, the Harz shows itself at its best to tourists and residents alike. Breathtaking views, beautiful scenery and fabulous panoramas make your holiday in the Harz a unique experience. Even from a distance, the Harz Mountains can be clearly recognised by the characteristic Brocken mountain. With a height of around 1141 metres, it is a popular destination for excursions and at the same time a national landmark of the Harz. Above all, a hike or cycle tour to the summit of the Brocken through the Harz nature is rewarded by a wonderful view high up from the highest mountain in northern Germany. For those who are not very good on foot or by bike, there is the Brocken Railway, which is popular with tourists and holidaymakers. Anyone who spends a holiday here must have ridden it once. Since 1992, the steam locomotive has been transporting Harz holidaymakers up the Brocken with around 700 horsepower via the Harz narrow-gauge railways. The advantage: the Brockenbahn does not only run in summer, even in the depths of winter the journey through snow-covered forests and snow-blown plateaus can be enjoyed to the full. An absolutely thrilling ride that no one should miss during their stay in the Harz Mountains.

If that's not enough, the Harz Mountains offer a whole range of other exciting sights and attractions.

The winding, quaint alleys of the towns amidst the historic half-timbered houses, especially in the old town of Quedlinburg, invite you to linger and relax. However, there is also a wide range of retail outlets, so that those less interested in culture can enjoy a shopping trip in the middle of the Harz region. From cafés, restaurants and bars, every palate will find something to suit its taste.

Frequently asked questions about holiday accommodation in the Harz Mountains

To give you a better basis for making your decision, we answer frequently asked questions about a stay in a holiday flat in the Harz mountains below.

At what time of year is a holiday in the Harz particularly worthwhile?

It doesn't matter whether it's summer or winter - the Harz has its own advantages depending on the season and is therefore attractive at almost every time of year. Depending on the weather and temperature, only the possible outdoor activities, such as hiking or cycling tours, differ, whereas numerous indoor attractions provide suitable relief. Whether a holiday in the planned season is an option for you depends entirely on your individual plans. Would you rather swim in one of the Harz lakes and let the sun shine on your belly or experience a full winter sports programme in Germany's northernmost mountains?

In spring, the Harz is a popular destination for hikers, although you should take into account possible snowfall. Some hiking trails are closed in the event of excessive snow. It therefore makes sense to find out in advance if you are planning a hiking trip, especially in spring and winter. If you want to experience the Harz nature in its full bloom, you should come here in summer. At this time of year, the many bathing lakes and, of course, swimming pools can be used for leisure activities. Some reservoirs can also be used for water sports. If you come to the Harz in winter, however, you can definitely expect snow at an altitude of 650 metres. For this reason, at this time of year the closed cross-country ski trails are a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts seeking the thrill of snowboarding or tobogganing, for example. No matter what time of year: For a relaxing or action-packed holiday in the Harz, you can easily find out about holiday flats in the Harz on our portal and choose the right accommodation for you.

Inexpensive holiday flats are already available from €40 per night, although prices tend to be around €90 per night on average. As in other holiday regions, the prices of holiday flats per night can definitely increase during popular holiday periods. Especially at the end of the year, between the holidays, there is a significant increase in prices.

How can I book the flat of my choice?

Holiday flats are not booked directly through our portal. In this category, we only present selected holiday flats from the Harz region and show you all the essential features and special characteristics at a glance. Together with the landlords, we attach great importance to filling the respective entries in our portal as completely as possible, in order to offer you the best possible basis for deciding on accommodation in the Harz. To book one of the holiday flats, simply click on the booking button in the entry of the holiday flat. This usually leads you to the respective booking calendar of the holiday flat. There you can either contact the landlord directly by phone or by email, or you can book your stay directly and easily in the calendar. In contrast to conventional booking portals, we only act as an intermediary, but the booking is made directly with the respective accommodation without unnecessary detours. This avoids misunderstandings, discrepancies or mistakes and you can always contact the landlord personally if you have any questions.

How can I tell if the holiday home is available?

You can usually find out if a holiday home is available via the above-mentioned booking calendar of the respective accommodation.

What are the advantages of a holiday flat over a holiday home?

The holiday flat is considered a comfortable alternative to the classic holiday home. Especially couples or singles who are not travelling as a group or as a family can save money by staying in a holiday flat. Because of the usually smaller living space and the usually more luxurious furnishings, the costs of most holiday flats are significantly lower than those of holiday homes. In this way, the next holiday in the Harz Mountains is affordable even for those on a tight budget. However, no one has to do without amenities, because most of the holiday flats listed here also have popular features such as a TV or a kitchen with dishwasher.
