What it is
From the valley floor, in Thale, a cabin cable car crosses the Bode Gorge and rises to the Hexentanzplatz plateau, the witches' viewpoint, with views over the canyon and the plain. On the other side, a chairlift goes up to the Rosstrappe. The company also has a summer toboggan run and other attractions at the top.
How it works
Go up on the cable car and walk down through the forest, or the other way round. Note: in November 2026 everything is closed and it reopens on 25 December. The valley stations have no parking: leave the car in the Bodetal car park.
