Schierke, Germany
Brocken
Brocken, also sometimes referred to as Blocksberg, is a 1,141 m mountain near Schierke in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, between the rivers Weser and Elbe. The highest peak in the Harz mountain range, and in Northern Germany, it is subalpine, yet has a microclimate resembling that of mountains nearly 1,000 m higher. The elevation above its tree line tends to have snowcover from September to May, and mists and fogs shroud it up to 300 days a year.
