Of legends and gradients: how Günther conquered the resin in a wheelchair

Of legends and gradients: how Günther conquered the resin in a wheelchair

in the picturesque Harz, where myths and legends are in the air, there are stories that touch life - and that in a unique way. Carsten Kiehne, fairy tale collector from Bad Suderode, is a real connoisseur of these stories. For over a decade, he has been collecting legs, stories and anecdotes from the region together with his partner Manuela Petri and has published more than thirty books. On Tuesday, March 4, Kiehne organized a very special hike to the old Paracelsus Harz Clinic, which, however, did not remain without challenges.

in the middle of the hiking group was Günther, an older man who is dependent on an electric wheelchair. Despite the three -hour tour and the steep climb to the clinic, his motivation was unbroken. Kiehne initially asked himself whether Günther could handle the route, but the group was determined to help him. Together Günther was pushed up the steep mountain despite the difficulties. And here the warmth of the hikers shows: "We are a community, and we tackle there," found Kiehne. [news38.de]

an unforgettable experience

The effort was worth it! Once at the top, Günther beamed with joy and described the hike as the highlight of his stay in the clinic. Kiehne himself was touched by experience and saw one of the most beautiful experiences of his 14-year career in this event. With over 1,500 narrative events and hiking tours, Kiehne has set itself the task of keeping the stories of the Harz alive and not being forgotten. The combination of culture and nature makes the region attractive for hiking friends and historical lovers. [n-ag.net]

The hikes through the Harz are not only intended for sporty adventurous, but also for people with special needs. The Harz itself has a lot to offer: strange rock masses, dark tunnels, idyllic castles and mysterious caves, in which the legends of miners, dwarfs and witches come to life. These stories are part of people's oldest cultural assets, and the Harz National Park invites you to discover and experience these stories. [harzer-sagen.harz-urlaub.de]

For everyone who wants to learn more about the myths and anecdotes of the Harz, Kiehne has an extensive offer. His hikes are not only informative, but also a journey into the past that makes the deep roots of the region visible. A special highlight is the natural myth path near Braunlage with its nine hands -on stations that bring you closer to the dialogue with nature.

A good tip for newcomers or old hands who want to discover the resin: Carsten Kiehne's hikes are an interesting mix of physical challenge and intellectual enrichment. So, grab your hiking shoes and go into the fabulous world of the Harz!
