A beautiful and varied circular hiking route with great panoramic views over the Dörentruper landscape. In the distance, the towns of Lemgo, Dörentrup, Barntrup, and many small villages can be seen. The circular hiking route partly follows the "Path of Views," and this route lives up to its name.

There used to be six watchtowers or rather sentry towers on the hills around Blomberg. Unfortunately, only a few remains have survived. And many legends and stories. This hiking route leads on a feeder and a northern section of the Nelkenweg to the Dicker Berg with the ruin of one of these Blomberg watchtowers. The way back to the town follows another feeder of the Nelkenweg over the scenic Hohe Feld. At the end, this roughly 12 kilometer long path even goes through the Paradies.

An important trade route, the Hellweg, once also led through the Blomberg area. Today, mainly on now wooded slopes, sunken paths, sometimes even entire bundles of them, bear witness to the hard work of people and draft animals. The nearly 13-kilometer-long hiking trail follows feeder paths to the Blomberg Nelkenweg and also a section of this circular route around the town. Along the way, there is also a glimpse into the hell of medieval transport. The return route follows the historic path. After overcoming remains of the Blomberg Landwehr, the unwooded western slope of the Eichenberg offers, alongside further bundles of paths, the remains of a former common pasture. Ancient beeches and oaks could tell long stories here.

Picturesque in the Lipper BerglandThis manageable hike connects two small towns in the Lipper Bergland along a section of the Dingelstedt path. The starting point is the fortress-like Blomberg, which developed from an Old Saxon settlement around the castle in the Middle Ages into an important market town and was granted city rights in 1280. During the Soest Feud in 1447, Blomberg was largely destroyed but was soon rebuilt. On the northern side of the Beckerberg, which we cross during the tour, lies Barntrup, a foundation of the Counts of Sternberg. The valley of the Bega is also framed by an extensive mosaic of meadows, fields, and forests.

A varied circular route with charming views towards Lemgo, Burg Sternberg, and Dörentruper districts. The path repeatedly follows the "Way of Views" in sections. In the second part of the hike, there are frequent views to the south up to the Teutoburg Forest.

In the Lippe region between Alverdissen, Reine, and SonnebornThe rolling Lippe region often offers wonderful views with its frequently open scenery. The particularly outstanding points of this hike, which leads us in a large, full-day loop from Alverdissen via Reine and Sonneborn, are the Hohe Asch and the windmill stump (also called "Mühlenpott"). So, the landscape provides extensive impressions. Unfortunately, the usual rural paths often have asphalt underfoot, except for certain sections over the Hohe Asch and on the intricate Mühlenberg.

    Genau wie beschrieben und ca. alle 5min gibt es eine Bank, Sitzgruppe etc. Die Wege sind gut begehbar, derzeit teilweise etwas matschig da es die letzten Tage viel geregnet hat. Beim Schloss lohnt ein Blick in den Landschaftspark. Danke für den Tipp.

    Eine insgesamt wirklich schöne Runde die auch mit Tragling auf dem Rücken gut zu absolvieren ist. Leider war der ''Abstecher' zum Dicker Berg absolut nicht zu finden, stattdessen immerhin hautnahe Begegnung mit zwei riesenhaften Windrädern. Eine schöne erste Einsicht in die Blomberger Umgebung, die wir sicher noch weiter erkunden werden.

    Sehr schöne Wanderung, besonders der Start an der Burg mit den kleinen Weg ist malerisch schön. Bei km 8 stimmt der Track nicht, da einfach die alternative auf der Karte auswählen. Ansonsten kann man die Strecke durchaus empfehlen. Einkehrmöglichkeiten gibt es unterwegs nicht, aber ein paar Bänke.

    Bestandteil unsere Urlaubswoche beim Deutschen Wandertag 2018 in Detmold. Wir haben uns für diese geführte Wanderung angemeldet und wurden angenehm überrascht. Eine kleine, aber feine Truppe von 6 Leuten + Wanderführern machte sich an diesem schönen Tag auf einen kleinen Rundweg um Blomberg. Es war eine schöne Runde, Natur wie sie lebt. Geschichten, Historisches und wissenswertes über Flora und Fauna gab es zu hören. Ein interessanter Einblick gab es auch in die Hölle. Die Menschen hatten es wohl wirklich nicht einfach. Danke für einen schönen Tag. Wir sehen uns bei der Nelkenwanderung :)
