thanks for the two responses....happy hexennacht. Party in Heidelberg and other towns and cities that celebrate this ancient festival which is similar to our mischief night.

He asked a question on how to get to Mt. Brock and rather than responding on his original post he started a new post - just to confuse you, janis!

May mean Brocken, in Harz Mountains if it means anything a'tal!

Hope you come down sometime!

It does mean Brocken - on Walpurgisnacht, which has just been, traditionally witches hold a festival on the Brocken - people party and burn bonfires. It's sort of a spring festival. When you visit that part of the world you can get witch souvenirs, little dolls of old crones on broomsticks.
