Hiking

Beautiful narrow path! However, only about 400 m, then wide dirt road again.

Hiking

At Stachelberg, between Hennef and Eitdorf, the Sieg River meanders in sweeping loops through lush floodplains. A well-maintained path leads directly along the Sieg, sometimes close to the bank, sometimes high on the steep bank clinging to the rocks. Everywhere you have wonderful views of the tranquil landscape, allowing you to breathe deeply and let your mind wander.
