Day 3 - The Brocken Railway
We discover the dense forests and clear lakes of the Harz
Mountains today as we travel along the Brocken Railway. On board,
we enjoy an exclusive experience in our private carriage, a
refurbished 1920s affair, celebrating with a welcome drink before
the train steams towards Brocken, the highest mountain in the area.
We're accompanied by a specialist guide who'll talk to us about the
fascinating Cold War background of the area and, at the summit, we
visit the Brocken House Museum. Detailing the surprising history of
Brocken, once rife with espionage, you can learn about, and see,
GDR bugging devices as well as take an interactive flight over the
mountain.
