24 March 2024, Saxony-Anhalt, Schierke: View through the rain-soaked windshield of a vehicle on the Brockenstrasse. A brief onset of winter cloaks the Harz summit in a white winter landscape. Only a few visitors ventured up the Brocken on Sunday. Cold winds and icy temperatures deterred many hikers from visiting the Brocken. Milder weather is only expected in the coming days.
