Hello dear hikers!

Join us for a 20.6 km hike through the beautiful hills and forests of the Rhein-Sieg area, from the charming village of Blankenberg to Hennef. We’ll start in Blankenberg, where we can enjoy views of its medieval castle and walls. Then, we’ll follow part of the scenic Bergischer Weg, making our way through the peaceful Ahrenbachtal.

Halfway through, we’ll take a break at a [romantic Christmas market](https://www.weihnachtsmarkt-deutschland.de/hennef-kurscheid-weihnachtsmarkt.html) in the forest near Kurscheid. It’s the perfect spot to warm up and enjoy some drinks and treats before we continue on our journey.

Our hike will then lead us to Hennef, where we’ll catch a train to Siegburg (only 5 minutes away), home to a magical [medieval Christmas market](https://mittelalterlicher-markt-siegburg.de/) 🔥

Highlights:

🏰 Stunning views of Blankenberg
🏞️ A peaceful hike through Ahrenbachtal
🎄 Festive Christmas market in the woods near Kurscheid
✨ A cozy finish at the medieval Christmas market in Siegburg
