Great hiking trail in the Ahrenbach Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A rustic, narrow path. All sorts of flowers bloom here in spring. And you can learn a lot about the creek that powered six mills and was therefore very important to the region.

View of Blankenberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Great facility, if all the benches are occupied you can also take a seat on the castle wall to take a break. It is very wide and you are out of the way of the "running traffic". The ascent ends at the Blankenberg castle wall. You either walk along the street or by the bow wall. The stairs end under the path to the castle wall.

Blankenberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Impressive castle complex, especially when you first saw it from the valley. Unfortunately not always accessible.

View of the Sieg Valley from Stadt Blankenberg Castle

Gate in the Town Wall

Highlight • Historical Site

The city wall, some parts of which are up to 800 years old, has a length of 1,600 meters and a total visible masonry area of around 13,700 square meters, a volume that corresponds to half the building volume of Cologne Cathedral.

Katharinenturm and Tower Museum (Blankenberg)

Highlight • Historical Site

The 13th-century Katharinenturm is the main tower in the south of the city. First expanded into a youth hostel in 1935, it was finally set up as a museum in 1936. Today's local history museum shows objects relating to the history and life of the people in the town of Blankenberg.
