Information House Schierke

Situated at the entrance to the park, the exhibition in the information house informs the visitor about the mythical wilderness of the Harz National Park but also presents practical information about how to get to the mountain peak and what the weather is like when you get there.

An interactive map highlights the alternative routes and their characteristics while a real time web based weather station gives the visitor an idea of the conditions on the peak. A film animation consisting of images taken over the period of a year shows how the magical landscape changes throughout the seasons.
