Take the train to Goslar (Harz) - There are several major trains stations in the surroundings of the Upper Harz - Hannover, Hildesheim, Braunschweig or Göttingen. Each of them is connected via ICE - from any one of these you can go to Goslar.
From Goslar station take the (hourly) bus to Clausthal-Zellerfeld central bus station (ZOB) - we will organise a pick-up from there.
By Plane
There are 3 airports in the surroundings of the Upper Harz - Hannover, Kassel and Erfurt. Of course there are major airports like Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, Hamburg or Berlin as well, but you should be aware that it will be up to 3 additional hours to go.
Since Erfurt and Kassel do not provide the best connection via train, the recommended Airport would be Hannover. From there you should either take trains as described in the "By Train" section, or get someone to pick you up by car.
