Bergeshöveder Berg, Mountain summit in Hörstel, Germany

Bergeshöveder Berg rises 115 meters above sea level within the Teutoburg Forest region, featuring sandstone formations and natural vegetation patterns.

In 1929, Austrian pilot Robert Kronfeld launched his glider Wien from this mountain, completing the first 100-kilometer distance flight in aviation history.

The mountain forms an integral part of the Riesenbecker Osning region, connecting with neighboring peaks Riesenbecker Berg, Lagerberg, and Birgter Berg.

Multiple hiking trails cross the mountain terrain, offering routes of varying difficulty levels connected to the broader Teutoburg Forest path network.

A memorial established in 1991 marks the exact location between the inn Zum alten Fritz and the canal bridge where Kronfeld initiated his record flight.
