    According to popular belief, a trade route from Cologne via Siegburg through the Nutscheid to Siegerland already existed in the Roman era in the Rhineland: the "Roman Road". Its construction is attributed to the Romans, but this is not correct, as it lacks any kind of substructure, as is typical of the roads built by the Romans. Rather, it was created as a natural path through continuous use by horses and carts, with sections of the route that became impassable simply being bypassed. Such "multi-lane" sections are still visible in the terrain today. A comfortable section with beautiful views for mountain bikers.
