The final ones, no. 88 (Hoher Kleef) and no. 99 (Harzer Dampflok) were encashed last sunday. I finished my chase for stamps with mixed feelings though:On the one hand, I am happy and proud of myself. On the other hand, I wonder what&#8217;s next? But there is a simple answer to it: More magnificent hiking tours are to come &#8211; but without any pressure to collect as many stamps at possible at a time<\/p>\n<p>On sunday we started off in R\u00fcbeland which is quite a nice village in the Upper Harz with two well-known caves. Above on of them there is a gazebo on top of the &#8220;Hoher Kleef&#8221; hill. A nice hiking trail leads to it crossing the ruins of fortress Birkenfeld. The view from the top is wonderful. I need to return in summer that is for sure.<\/p>\n<p>Our next goal is the Galgenberg of Neustadt. On top of this hill we&#8217;ll find the final stamp: the Harzer Dampflok. The place is quite new, just good enough for a last-ditch effort. Again, we enjoy a wonderful view from the top, this time onto Neustadt. We take a winner photo, of course. I smile, I am happy. It was a great time and still I feel that &#8220;the chase is better than the catch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We drive back to Osterode located on the fringes of the Harz National Park. We go for a walk around the &#8220;S\u00f6setalsperre&#8221; and finally celebrate this red-letter day with mulled wine on the Christmas Market of Osterode.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"gmedia_gallery amron_module is_bot\" id=\"GmediaGallery_789_1\" data-gmid=\"789\" data-module=\"amron\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t(function() {\n\t\tthis['GmediaGallery_789_1'] = {\n\t\t\t'settings':{\"collectionThumbRecomendedWidth\":\"260\",\"collectionPreloaderColor\":\"333333\",\"linkTargetWindow\":\"_blank\",\"thumbSpacing\":\"10\",\"tagsFilter\":\"1\",\"tagCloudAll\":\"All\",\"tagCloudTextColor\":\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\",\"tagCloudTextColorOver\":\"rgba(255,255, 255, 1)\",\"tagCloudBgColor\":\"rgba(211, 211, 211, 1)\",\"tagCloudBgColorOver\":\"rgba(11, 11, 11, 1)\",\"collectionThumbHoverColor\":\"rgba(0, 0, 0, .7)\",\"collectionThumbContentBGColor\":\"rgba(245,245,245,1)\",\"collectionThumbTitleShow\":\"1\",\"collectionThumbTitleColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"collectionThumbFontSize\":\"18\",\"collectionThumbDescriptionShow\":\"1\",\"collectionThumbDescriptionColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"collectionThumbDescriptionFontSize\":\"15\",\"collectionReadMoreButtonLabel\":\"Read More\",\"collectionReadMoreButtonLabelColor\":\"rgba(255, 255, 255, 1)\",\"collectionReadMoreButtonBGColor\":\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\",\"collectionReadMoreButtonLabelColorHover\":\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)\",\"collectionReadMoreButtonBGColorHover\":\"rgba(235,235,235,1)\",\"modaBgColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,0.9)\",\"modalInfoBoxBgColor\":\"rgba(255,255,255,1)\",\"modalInfoBoxTitleTextColor\":\"000000\",\"modalInfoBoxTextColor\":\"333333\",\"infoBarCountersEnable\":\"1\",\"infoBarDateInfoEnable\":\"1\",\"lightBoxEnable\":\"1\",\"sliderPreloaderColor\":\"ffffff\",\"sliderBgColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,0.8)\",\"sliderHeaderFooterBgColor\":\"000000\",\"sliderNavigationColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"sliderNavigationIconColor\":\"rgba(255,255,255,1)\",\"sliderNavigationColorOver\":\"rgba(255,255,255,1)\",\"sliderNavigationIconColorOver\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"sliderItemTitleFontSize\":\"24\",\"sliderItemTitleTextColor\":\"ffffff\",\"sliderThumbBarEnable\":\"0\",\"sliderThumbBarHoverColor\":\"ffffff\",\"sliderThumbSubMenuBackgroundColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"sliderThumbSubMenuBackgroundColorOver\":\"rgba(255,255,255,1)\",\"sliderThumbSubMenuIconColor\":\"rgba(255,255,255,1)\",\"sliderThumbSubMenuIconHoverColor\":\"rgba(0,0,0,1)\",\"sliderInfoEnable\":\"1\",\"sliderItemDownload\":\"1\",\"sliderItemDiscuss\":\"1\",\"sliderSocialShareEnabled\":\"1\",\"sliderLikesEnabled\":\"1\",\"customCSS\":\"\",\"module_url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.christinaschlegl.de\\\/wp-content\\\/plugins\\\/grand-media\\\/module\\\/amron\",\"license\":\"\",\"post_url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.christinaschlegl.de\\\/en\\\/wp-json\\\/wp\\\/v2\\\/posts\\\/17781\"},\n\t\t\t'appQuery':{\"orderby\":\"custom\",\"order\":\"ASC\",\"album__in\":\"789\",\"status\":[\"publish\"],\"limit\":100},\n\t\t\t'appApi':\"https:\\\/\\\/www.christinaschlegl.de\\\/en\\\/?gmedia-app=1&gmappversion=4&gmmodule=1\",\n\t\t\t'appInfo':{\"name\":\"R\\u00fcbeland\",\"description\":\"Die letzten beiden Stempel zum Wanderkaiser am 8.12.2019 mit Christian: Nr. 99 und Nr. 88.\"}};\n\t})();\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I do not come undone, no: IT is done! 222 (in words: two hundred and twenty-two) stamps of the &#8220;Harzer Wandernadel&#8221; are mine!
