The Harz Forester's Trail runs from the historic imperial city of Goslar via Wolfshagen, past the mining towns of Lautenthal, Wildemann, and Bad Grund to the highlands around Clausthal-Zellerfeld. It leads south past Buntenbock and Lerbach to Riefensbeek-Kamschlacken near Osterode. It touches three important reservoirs of the western Harz: the Granetalsperre, the Innerste Reservoir, and the Sösetalsperre.
The hiking trail is marked by numerous viewpoints and connects essential elements that characterize the western Harz: a rugged scenic variety, different types of forests and biotopes, historic mining, water use and flood protection, as well as careful and sustainable timber use in combination with the conversion of unsuitable tree stands.
The trail largely incorporates the historic "Innerste Rennstieg," which was already used in the Bronze Age for transporting goods and transmitting messages.
