Schomberg

Schomberg is a summit in the Lennegebirge range standing at 648 meters, characterized by wooded slopes that descend across the Sauerland landscape. The terrain consists primarily of forested hillsides offering views across North Rhine-Westphalia.

An observation tower named Schombergturm was erected in 2005 to provide an elevated viewpoint across the region. This addition offered visitors a new vantage point to experience the Sauerland landscape.

The mountain serves as a gathering place for outdoor enthusiasts throughout the year, drawing people from surrounding communities. The marked trails connect the peak to nearby settlements and form part of the regional recreational landscape.

A large parking area at Wildewiese provides direct access to multiple walking routes from the mountain's base. Visitors can easily begin their journey on the various marked trails that crisscross the slopes.

The Sorpe River originates from the northwestern slope of the mountain, beginning its journey through the Sauerland landscape. Multiple ski lifts operate on the slopes, serving runs of varying lengths that make this a year-round destination.
