As a former mining site and seat of wood grinding shops, all of which are now closed, tourism is now an important economic factor in the area. Sieber is a suitable place for those seeking tranquility and hikers. The tranquil valley offers hiking trails of various levels of difficulty, the steep slopes lead up to challenging hiking routes e.g. to the Großer Knollen or to the Hanskühnenburg.
