A busy Sieg crossing on the L333. Watch out for traffic. In the curve is the Hotel & Gasthof Schützenhof, with a lovely terrace and good, home-style food. At the corner opposite, take the dreamy Bitzer Straße (road bike path) and climb to Käsberg/Obenroth, bypassing the Eitorf town center and then into the Mühleiper Valley. Perfect asphalt. On the Scheel Sick (Halfter side), after 50 meters towards Herchen, there's a connection to the Siegradweg on the right. For those who like a more challenging ride, cross the paved road here and take a gentle climb up to Richardshohn. Or turn left to cross into the perfectly paved Ottersbacher Valley to the Bröltal. Or use the Scheel Sick to roll via Lützgenauel to Merten.

Stromberg's idyllic oak grove, several hundred years old, is a natural monument, canoe landing, swimming area, and a bridge with a view of the Swan's Nest. It was the scene of a skirmish between Napoleonic soldiers and local freedom fighters. Climbing the Sieghöhe hill, you'll reach the ring wall from the time of Franconian expansion. A paved cycle and pedestrian path runs through the center. Bells are provided for the often large number of visitors. Beautiful benches provide rest.

An idyllic Siegauen section of the Siegradweg between Hoppengarten and Dattenfeld, no bridge, no railway. It's a good alternative to the two long straight stretches of the L333 (the speed limit is often 70 km/h there 😁) before Dattenfeld. A bell on the bike for pedestrian information is a good idea.
