Steinkopf, Mountain summit in Wetterau, Hesse, Germany

Steinkopf rises to an elevation of 518 meters within the Taunus mountain range, featuring rocky outcrops and forested slopes in central Germany.

The Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes, an ancient Roman military border with multiple forts, extends along the western flanks of the mountain.

The mountain's name translates to 'stone head' in English, reflecting the geological characteristics of its quartzite-rich terrain.

Multiple marked hiking trails connect the summit to nearby parking areas, making it accessible for visitors exploring the Taunus region.

A 105-meter telecommunications tower constructed in 1972 stands at the peak, serving mobile communications and radio transmission networks.
