Augstberg, Mountain summit in Baden-Württemberg, Germany
Augstberg rises to an elevation of 849 meters within the Swabian Jura mountain range, featuring steep slopes and dense forest coverage throughout its terrain.
The mountain's observation tower underwent multiple reconstructions since 1894, with the current 30-meter concrete structure dating from 1963 after previous wooden versions fell to storms.
The etymology of Augstberg stems from Old High German 'ouwist', reflecting the mountain's historical connection to sheep herding practices in the region.
Visitors can access the mountain through a network of marked trails starting from Steinhilben, located 1.5 kilometers north of the summit.
The mountain experiences distinct temperature variations, with July averaging 18°C and January dropping to -6°C, receiving 1,347 millimeters of annual precipitation.
