Kutschenberg, Summit in Großkmehlen, Germany
Kutschenberg is a hill located near Großkmehlen in Brandenburg, reaching 201 meters in elevation. It forms part of the Kmehlener Berge mountain range and shapes the area's landscape.
Geological surveys in 2000 confirmed its status as Brandenburg's highest point. A granite marker was installed in 2011 to mark the location.
The northeast slope hosts the Am Kutschenberg racetrack, which has become a gathering place for motorsport enthusiasts. Regular events with cars and motorcycles take place there throughout the year.
Several hiking routes lead to the summit, including a 6.8-kilometer loop from Großkmehlen and a longer 21.5-kilometer trail from Ortrand. Both routes are manageable on foot or by bicycle.
Many people mistakenly believe Hagelberg is Brandenburg's highest point, yet Kutschenberg actually surpasses it. This confusion remains common among visitors and local hikers.
