    The last few meters it is a huge climb. It is worth it ! Left of the tower brilliant single trail.

      I just can approve that too ! Very beautiful. Absolutely enjoy the view - if you still have the strength to walk up the tower after the climb ;-))

        This dashed way is almost overgrown but right of the tower is beautiful trail.

          I can only recommend it, but the climb is tough.
          The trail that starts from the tower is unfortunately overgrown at the moment.

            The dashed path to pos. 8.00 is now very difficult to make out. Going up with a bike is not possible the first 50m. Tip: continue driving and take the path from the two o'clock position. The tower itself is astonishingly old but in very good shape. The view is great.

              Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, the trees obstruct the view, but still recommended. Can someone tell me how to find the dotted on the map "footpath"?

                    New bench below the Gilbergturm with a magnificent view of Siegen.
                    Use before it has grown again!

                      Currently, a tree is lying across just before the final ascent.
                      The view from the tower is very limited by the trees.
                      As Stefan28 writes, the view from the bank northwest of the tower to Siegen is fantastic.

                        Very cool view from above👍
                        Reward for the uphill 💪
