Wie schön, dass der Weg wieder restauriert wurde. Super gekennzeichnet. Vielen Dank dafür! Jetzt im Frühjahr wirkt der Kahlschlag nicht mehr so schlimm, außerdem gibt es viele neue Aussichten.

Natursteig Sieg | Etappe 10 | Rund-um-Wissen by Manuel
May 04, 2023 · Community
Erstaunlich schön... Naja, mit Abstrichen. Öfter geht man mal ein Stück Straße oder durch ein Neubaugebiet. Dafür sind die Single Trail Abschnitte um so schöner. Insgesamt ist der Weg einfach mit zwei mittelschweren Abschnitten. Ich war nach 4h 20min rum. Fließende Kleingewässer sind (zumindest im Mai) vorhanden, mir hätte ein Wasserfilter gereicht. In Wissen gibt es reichlich Pizzatempel.
