From its source in Siegen-Wittgenstein, the Sieg cycle path runs through Germany's most densely wooded district via Netphen and Siegen.

We recommend using the regional rail services between Mudersbach-Niederschelderhütte (Niederschelden station) first to Au (Sieg) with the RB 90 and from there to Windeck-Rosbach (S12/S19).

The official Siegen cycle route then begins in Windeck-Rosbach. It leads via Eitorf, Hennef, Siegburg and Troisdorf to the confluence with the Rhine at Niederkassel-Mondor. The Sieg cycle path crosses the Sieg several times along the entire route.

Safty guidelines

Due to the poor quality of the cycle path in the Altenkirchen district section, a family-friendly long-distance cycle path is unfortunately not available there until further notice. In many cases, the current path runs directly on the busy B 62 federal highway and is therefore too dangerous. We therefore recommend using the regional rail service between Mudersbach-Niederschelderhütte (Niederschelden station) first to Au (Siegen) with the RB 90 and from there to Windeck-Rosbach (S12/S19).
