Dreisel Ascent Trail with Shelter

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The descent down to victory is not without its dangers. Especially in autumn and winter it can get very smooth and slippery on the leaves, rocks or roots! Watch out! After all, a few ropes are stretched ....

Windeck Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

It can be doubted that the RTL production “Demon Wedding” was a high point in the 800-year history of the castle. The symbol of the municipality of Windeck in the Siegtal has seen completely different things since it was first mentioned in 1174 as “Castrum novum in windeke”. The castle was destroyed several times in later centuries and threatened to deteriorate completely before the Siegkreis had the Palas wall rebuilt and the keep secured in the 1960s. Archaeological investigations uncovered a floor plan that gives an idea of the imposing dimensions of the castle.

Dattenfeld Castle

Highlight • Castle

Dattenfeld Castle, a fortified house dating from 1629, was built between 1619 and 1629 by Jacob Robens, who was court clerk in Dattenfeld. Today you can get married there in a civil ceremony :-). It can also be visited, but is currently closed. In my opinion, very worth seeing!

Wilberhofen Viewpoint Shelter

Highlight • Viewpoint

For a short time you have to part from the view of the river, it goes steeply up to the Auenberg. The view from the refuge compensates for that!

Narrow path on the steep slope of the Sieg (Natursteig Sieg, Stage 7)
