Mäuseklippe

Mäuseklippe is a granite rock formation located on the northwest slope of Barenberg mountain at approximately 660 meters elevation. The formation consists of large stone blocks that create a distinctive outline and can be approached from multiple directions.

The rock formation developed over millions of years through erosion and natural weathering in the Harz region. These geological processes created the distinctive stone blocks visible today.

Local residents maintain several traditional hiking events throughout the year, incorporating this formation as a key landmark in their routes.

The site is accessible via the Harzwanderweg 30E hiking route, which is marked with yellow triangles and begins near the town of Schierke. The trail is well signposted and offers multiple approach options to reach the formation.

The formation offers climbing opportunities and reveals views of Renneckenberg mountain and the Kalten Bode river valley below. This vantage point demonstrates how the rocks connect with the surrounding geography of the Harz region.
