The castle, the forest and the water

 

Due to storm damage, a parallel detour is currently signposted in the Hellbachskopf area.

Typical Siegerland: pits, caves and tunnels along the way bring the region's centuries-old mining history to life. The last stage of the Natursteig Sieg leads you along secluded forest paths to the medieval Freusburg castle high above the Sieg.

Natursteig Sieg | Etappe 14 | Kirchen (Sieg)–Mudersbach

icon-info Details
The path from Kirchen to Mudersbach begins with a 2 km long access path. The path around and through the village of Katzenbach, to Freusburg and through the Giebelwald has its own special charms. A forest regeneration area offers surprising views. The Mariengrotte above Mudersbach is the last mosaic. Before that, you can marvel at the 200 m long Erzquell tunnel, enjoy the long forest passage from Freusburg to the soldiers' grave and pass a secluded shelter. The climb from the Siegtal and the small hamlet of Freusburger Mühle is steep. Its namesake is 500 m earlier and is now used as a run-of-river power station for generating electricity. The path to Freusburg, the path-like passage behind Katzenbach, the small hamlet, the wonderful view above Katzenbach of the Siegberge, the valley, the castle in the distance and the swinging silhouettes of the valley basin - simply beautiful. ©W&A Marketing & Verlag GmbH
