Hiking

This almost 16-kilometer-long circular hiking trail takes you through dense forests and across wide meadows, always with wonderful views of the Sieg Valley and the Westerwald. At the train station in Kirchen (Sieg), you start out of town and pass the Freusburger Mill, which is a popular photo subject. On a slight incline, you pass the Otto Tower, which already offers a fantastic view into the distance, up to the 517-meter-high summit of the Windhahn - the perfect place to enjoy the beauty of the landscape.

From now on, you hike leisurely downhill before another highlight towers in front of you: the impressive basalt rock "Druidenstein". Here you can feel the mystical atmosphere that probably fascinated the ancient Celts. Once you have arrived back in tranquil Kirchen, you have several options to enjoy a refreshing drink or delicious food and relax after this eventful tour.

Otto Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Ottoturm is an almost 19-meter-high observation tower on the Kahlenberg. From here, you have a beautiful panoramic view of parts of the Siegerland region, especially when the weather is good; on particularly clear days you can even see the Siebengebirge. The steel staircase up to the tower is a highlight in itself, especially if you are afraid of heights. But the climb is worth it!

Druid's Stone

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Druidenstein is located on the first stage of the Druidensteig and the penultimate stage of the Natursteig Sieg long-distance hiking trail. The bizarre basalt cone is around 20 meters high and can be seen from afar. A very impressive place for a long break and if you have nothing left in your backpack, you can refill it at the "kiosk".

June 25, 2022,Druidenstein, Ottoturm ab Kirchen (Sieg)

A stage of the Natursteig Sieg was planned. When researching the stages, I came across this circular tour and changed my mind.
And I have to say I have no regrets.

From the train station in Kirchen it's a constant climb - but with a moderate incline.
Through many wooded areas and along wild meadows. At a nice rest area, …
