My path was IC to Lead Engineer to PM. The Lead Engineer role really help me to get an idea what the next step would be. I liked it and made the transition about 7 years ago.
Staying in the same engineering domain when I transitioned into PM helps keep my technical curiosity engaged. I can do with less red tape and office politics, but it comes with the job, so it is unavoidable.

Hope this data point help you out.
