Varied hike around the "Eisensteinsberg," which was formerly shaped by intensive mining, down into the car-free "Siebertal." Follow the still quite small "Sieber" upstream in the deeply cut valley to then return to the parking lot at the southwest slope of the "Schlufter Kopf" and the "Waage" past the striking rock formations of the "Dreibrodesteine."

We follow the road downwards towards Siebertal. After about 1 km, it goes down through the Dreibrodetal to the Sieber. On the left, a treeless clearing is noticeable where a large ski jump once stood. On the right rises the "Eisensteinsberg," which is full of mining shafts like Swiss cheese. Below at the Sieber, ironworks once dominated the valley during earlier mining times.

We walk on the right on the paved former public Siebertalstraße about 4 km upstream. We pass striking rocks like the "Stumpfen Stein," monuments, and also the remains of the Schluft forester's house, where today a shelter invites you to linger at the old pastures.

There we leave the Siebertal sharply to the right on the slope of the Schlufter Kopf following marker 16D. Immediately after crossing the Fischbach, we turn right up the path to the "Waager Planweg." This path circles the mountain named "Waage." Directly south, the hiking trail branches off to the left to the starting point of the route, passing beforehand the geological natural monument "Dreibrodesteine" with its striking granite rocks.
