Rugged hills and charming historic towns
The Harz Mountains are a scenic upland region in central Germany, known for dense forests, rugged hills, and charming historic towns. Its highest peak, the Brocken, is famous for its misty weather and local legends, locally known as a meeting place for witches. The Harz Mountains are a very special mix of nature, fairytale towns, and unique cultural experiences all in one region.

FAQs
Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
We understand that school music tours are considered as a reward or holiday for many groups and that where you stay is really important. All hotels and hostels we use are suitable for young music ensembles with many offering rehearsal space and instrument storage. Rooms are normally multi-bedded for students and twins, sometimes singles, for adults. Generally, rooms are en-suite.
You should book your tour between 8-18 months in advance. This will give us time to find the best possible venues for your tour and you will have ample time for fundraising should you need to do so.
As there is sometimes a significant time difference between us and you, email may be the best way to keep in touch with us. Alternatively, our office opening hours are 0800-1730 (GMT) should you wish to talk to us. Our phone number is +44 20 8772 6446.
