Harzhaus Altenau - Welcome!


We look forward to welcoming you to our cozy house and ensuring you have an unforgettable stay in the heart of the picturesque Harz Mountains.

Our comfortable rooms offer the ideal retreat after an eventful day in nature. Altenau is known for its diverse hiking tours, which have attracted guests from near and far for years. Whether you want to explore the idyllic trails, tackle the challenging mountain bike routes of the largest biking paradise in the north, or enjoy the perfectly groomed cross-country ski trails and toboggan runs in winter – here you will find everything your heart desires.

A special highlight is the Altenau Herb Park, the largest of its kind in Europe. On over 30,000 square meters, you can discover an impressive variety of native and exotic herbs and spices. A walk through the park becomes a journey of discovery for the senses, where you can not only learn interesting facts about the plants but also enjoy their aromatic scents.

The "Heißer Brocken" crystal sauna thermal spa ensures relaxation and well-being. You can unwind wonderfully in the various heated indoor and outdoor pools with varying brine concentrations. The sauna area offers specially created infusions with herbs from the nearby herb park and promises a unique experience.

Traditional events take place in Altenau throughout the year, enhancing your stay. Look forward to the Easter bonfire on April 19, 2025, the Walpurgis celebration on April 30, 2025, or the Nordic Walking Active Cup on May 4, 2025. These events offer you the opportunity to experience local culture up close and make unforgettable memories.

For beer lovers, a visit to the Altenau Brewery is a must. As the only remaining brewery in the Upper Harz region, it looks back on over 400 years of tradition. On a guided tour followed by a tasting, you can experience the artisanal art of brewing up close and enjoy regional specialties.

We cordially invite you to discover the beauty and diversity of Altenau and its surroundings. Submit your non-binding inquiry today, and we will be happy to create a tailor-made offer for your stay at Harzhaus Altenau.
