The Stromberg Plum Hiking Trail

Highlight • Trail

I really like the route, it inspires everyone, but:
How often does it have to be set up as a HL???
For this reason, and only for this reason, I am giving it a thumbs down

View of Stromberg Castle ruins and pilgrimage church

Highlight • Viewpoint

Burg Stromberg was first mentioned in a document in 1177. Access to the hill castle was via a drawbridge and through the upstream Paulus Tower. The Gothic Kreuzkirche, consecrated in 1344, is located within the castle grounds.

Even if there is not much left of the former castle, it is still a very beautiful place that is worth seeing.

April 4, 2026,Frühling im Stromberger Pflaumenland 🟣⚪

Today's visit to Stromberg offered a good mix of nature and history. With a mix of sun and clouds, the weather was perfect.
A special feature of the hike was the plum blossom. Many trees were already blooming vigorously white, while others were just about to. There was also a lot to discover on the ground: alongside vast wild garlic …

Start: Stromberg city center

Too bad
Unfortunately, just missing is also over. 😢
We just missed the plum blossom, as it was blooming very early this year.

The tour is very pretty. The area around the pilgrimage church is particularly worth seeing. The relatively high proportion of asphalt and the relatively long journey of 90 km in relation to the …

Today we took a tour in Stromberg (eastern Münsterland). The area is known for plum cultivation. Beautiful area.

April 21, 2025,Münsterland - Stromberg und das "Goldene Blau"

We were simply too late for this tour and missed the blossoming of the countless plum trees around Stromberg. Next year, we'll be there in time to immerse ourselves in what will likely be a beautiful sea of blossoms. Incidentally, the designated plum hiking trail is also very pleasant to walk on, except for a few hundred meters along a …

April 10, 2024,Löwenzahn😉😋tour rund um Stromberg

The plum blossom tour (yes, please smile) didn't fit (unfortunately, the blossoms stopped early this year), but there were endless dandelions and wild garlic (the scent in the air too) and pheasants. But when all the plantations are in bloom, it must be very attractive. I found the undulating landscape very soothing and the views were beautiful, although they would …

NRW Tourism writes: "In April and May, countless plum trees illuminate the area around Oelde-Stromberg with their blossoms." But after the warm (warmest!😳) March, we should have been here two weeks earlier. So now we're enjoying some pears, many apples, and the yellow of the dandelions is almost overwhelming. Yellow💛 – Yellow💛 – Yellow💛 – contrasting with the (dark) blue …

April 4, 2026,Oelde-Stromberg, Blütenrausch auf dem Pflaumenweg 🤩

During the plum harvest, at the end of August 2022, we were cycling the highly recommended tour "Über Strombergs Burgrand schauen" from "Radeln für die Seele" =

and had sworn to hike it once during the blooming season.

Today, the day has finally come! The weather forecast is good and a short, very pleasant conversation with Mrs. Stemich from …
