Pure nature on the Sieg Nature Trail

The first stage on the Natursteig Sieg is just under 15 kilometers long and is perfect for warming up. You start at Siegburg/Bonn train station and first follow the Mühlengraben. On the left is the Michaelsberg with the old Benedictine abbey. If you like, you can walk the short distance up the mountain… read more

On this almost 19-kilometer-long, beautiful stage of the Natursteig Sieg, you hike through cool forests, over wide plateaus and through the wild and romantic Bröl valley. It will be very natural and lonely today, because you will only pass very few settlements - and it will even be a little alpine! So… read more

Ok, at 27 kilometers this stage is quite a challenge. But it is beautiful and after you have already left the town of Blankenberg at the beginning of the stage, you hike mainly through the beautiful and lonely mountains on the Sieg - there is no larger place on the way, you only touch a few small villages… read more

From the train station in Eitorf you first hike steeply up to Bolscheid, where you meet the main path again. During your hike through the fields, meadows and forests of the Bergisches Land nature park, you will constantly go up and down and the most beautiful views open up behind every bend in the path… read more

This beautiful, almost 19 km long round starts and ends in Herchen. On the way you cross the charming nature reserve "Wälder auf dem Leuscheid", discover a ring wall system that is over 1,000 years old, try the water of a healing spring and enjoy the panorama from the 311 meter high Studchen. In a constant… read more

On this attractive stage, surefootedness and a thirst for adventure are required. Over mountains, through valleys and along a steep slope, you hike on natural paths, sometimes directly on the Sieg and sometimes in the wooded hinterland. At the end of the path lies the venerable, old Windeck castle ruins… read more

This stage also challenges you athletically, because it goes up and down the mountains on the Sieg - and in parts even quite steep. You will be rewarded with the most magnificent views and wonderful sections of the trail. Right next to Altwindeck it goes steeply uphill to the museum village and Windeck… read more

From the train station in Au you walk a short distance to the Sieg, cross under two bridges and dive straight into the forest. Under the canopy of old oaks and mixed forest you hike gently uphill, leave Halscheid on the left and roam through a partially open landscape to Dünebusch. There you can take… read more

From the station in Wissen, you hike up the access road via Streitholz and reach the main path of the Sieg natural trail above Holschbach. The first five kilometers will look familiar to you: you already walked them in the other direction on the eighth stage. Through young and light forest it goes over… read more

From the Auenlandweg on the Sieg to the Auenland in Middle-earth: This 15-kilometre stage has it all. And it still has other surprises in store - such as an impressive gray heron colony in the Auwiesen near Scheuerfeld.



From the train station in Wissen, follow the botanical path for a short distance and… read more

At 27 kilometers, this wonderful stage is a bit of a challenge, both in terms of length and differences in altitude - and here too there is a lot to see and discover. If you want to take more time for this, you can split the stage up and end it after about 16 kilometers at the train station in Alsdorf… read more

The last stage of the Natursteig Sieg lies ahead of you. At a good 20 kilometers in length, including a detour to Freusburg, and a few climbs, it is a worthy final stage - at least until the natural trail is extended to the renatured Siegquelle on the Rothaarkamm. Great. I'm really looking forward to… read more
