Kompass Walking Guide 5240 Harz
CAD 26.95

Saxony-Anhalt hiking guides gather dependable route descriptions and maps for varied landscapes: the northern Harz, Elbe River meadows and dyke paths, the Saale-Unstrut vineyard slopes, and wide Altmark farmland and heath. Titles range from compact day-hike volumes to detailed trail handbooks.

Most books combine clear cartography at 1:25,000 to 1:50,000 with elevation profiles, waymarking explanations, stage lengths, and access points. Many include public transport notes, refreshment and shelter symbols, and short background sections on nature and culture to enrich a walk.

Common choices in this section include region-wide overview books for Saxony-Anhalt, Harz-focused Hiking guides for ridge and valley routes, and handbooks for well-known long-distance options such as the Harz Witches' Trail or sections of the Green Belt and Luther Trail. Map booklets and atlases are also represented for walkers who prefer a larger overview.

Format options differ. Spiral-bound editions lie flat when navigating; pocket paperbacks are light in a jacket; some volumes offer water-resistant pages. Selected publishers provide GPX downloads or QR codes that complement the printed instructions with track files.

Selecting a title is easiest when matching scale and route style to the intended terrain. For dense forests and steeper ground in the Harz, detailed scales and contouring help with timing and ascent. In open Elbe or Altmark country, overview mapping supports long, level stages. Difficulty grading, waymark references, and realistic time estimates are helpful indicators when comparing routes.
