    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.

    Sind die Tour heute gelaufen. Den Bahnübergang gibt es nicht,mussten Verbotswidrig über die Schienen. Zum ersten Aufstieg gab es keinen Weg mehr sind kreuz und quer durch den Wald und dabei heftig bergauf. Also gutes Schuhwerk und reichlich zu trinken mit nehmen. Die Aussicht lässt dann aber alle Strapazen schnell vergessen. Die restliche Tour war gut. Man braucht aber eine gute Kondition. Viel Spaß

    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 :)
