Stamping station 153 / Goedeckenplatz

The Goedeckenplatz is a crossroads halfway between St. Andreasberg and the Großer Knollen, below the Koboldstaler Köpfe (591 m above sea level).

The Goedeck­en­platz can be reached via paths from Bad Lauter­berg via the Lut­ter­tal, from Sieber via the Gropen­born­skopf and from St. Andreas­berg via Sil­ber­hütte and Sieber­berg. From Goedeck­en­platz you have an excel­lent view of St. Andreas­berg and the Sieber valley. 

Next to the stamp box, the trail begins up to the Großer Knollen over the ridge of the Aschen­tal­shalbe (685 m above sea lev­el) and on over the Sieber­pass (550 m above sea level).

The Aschen­tal­shalbe runs almost exclu­sive­ly through dark spruce for­est, but you can enjoy won­der­ful views from the top of the ridge. After descend­ing from the Aschen­tal­salbe, fol­low the path along the Köte on the Sieber­pass, climb­ing steadi­ly to the Großer Knollen (687 m above sea lev­el) HWN 150.

From the Großer Knollen you can descend to the Knol­lenkreuz HWN 152 and hike through the val­ley of the Krumme Lut­ter via Goedeck­en­platz back to the Sieberberg.

The start­ing point is the Sieber­berg park­ing lot, between Sil­ber­hütte and Sieber. The Goedeck­en­platz is 2.5 km from the park­ing lot and the round trip from there to the Großer Knollen, on to the Knol­lenkreuz and back to the Sieber­berg is approx. 20 km long.
