Haferberg, Mountain summit in Kaufungen Forest, Germany
The Haferberg rises to 580.4 meters above sea level, marking a natural border between the states of Hesse and Lower Saxony in Germany.
The mountain's name originates from agricultural traditions, as local farmers cultivated oats on the surrounding slopes during previous centuries.
The Haferberg stands within the Münden Nature Park, where numerous hiking paths connect to the Frau Holle cultural trail system.
Visitors can access the summit by following marked trails from the Umschwang pass, located approximately 1.25 kilometers southeast of the peak.
The mountain serves as a watershed divide between the Fulda River to the west and the Werra River to the northeast, affecting regional water distribution.
