Hohe Möhr, Mountain summit in Black Forest, Germany
Hohe Möhr is a mountain summit in the Black Forest that rises to approximately 989 meters. An observation tower about 30 meters tall stands at the peak, offering views across the surrounding Baden-Württemberg landscape.
The observation tower was built in 1924 by the Black Forest Club, establishing the summit as a notable viewpoint in the region. Since its construction, the tower has shaped the mountain's profile and attracted visitors seeking views over the Black Forest.
The summit serves as a gathering place where local groups organize community meals and events that bring together residents and visitors. These occasions give the mountain a social function beyond its appeal as a day-trip destination.
Two main trails lead to the summit: from Schweigmatt covering about 2.5 kilometers and from Raitbach at about 5 kilometers, both accommodating different fitness levels. The routes are well-marked and relatively open, making navigation straightforward while offering views along the way.
A 77-meter steel lattice tower housing a radio transmitter stands at the peak, blending telecommunications with recreation. This transmitter broadcasts to the surrounding region while the tower itself has become part of the summit's character.
