Obernau Dam

Highlight • Monument

There is a nice circular route around the dam. The path has no significant gradients and is therefore also recommended for families.

May 29, 2025,1. Tag Sieg-Radweg von Siegen zur Siegquelle über Netphen

The route is very rough in places, especially after the Siegquelle spring, more of a hiking trail than a bike path. We were only able to negotiate the steep uphill section by pushing our bikes (trekking bikes without electric motors). All in all, you don't see much of the Sieg.

Absolutely extreme!!!!
We had to avoid a construction site. The slope here is extreme.
The Siegquelle is rather inconspicuous, but here is a really nice resting place. From the source of victory it goes partly steeply downhill to Siegen.
