Höcherberg, Mountain summit in Saarland, Germany.

Höcherberg is a wooded mountain in Saarland that rises to 518 meters above sea level. Its landscape is shaped by forest cover on its slopes, where small streams emerge and flow downward through valleys.

Roman relics were found on the Höcherberg, including remains of a road linking Tholey and Schwarzenacker and of a four-gods stone, yet settlement came late: Höchen is first mentioned in 1263. The monastery farms at Frankenholz and Münchwies fell derelict in the Thirty Years' War and were re-founded only in the late 17th century. From 1937 to 1947 there was an independent municipality named Höcherberg.

The mountain lies on the watershed between the Nahe/Glan and Blies river systems, and the Glan rises in the Bexbach district of Höchen about 1 km from the summit. The Höcherberg hiking trail of the Saarwald-Verein leads up the mountain, and the Höchen branch of the Pfälzerwald-Verein has marked five circular routes around it, lasting from 45 minutes to 4.5 hours.

A hiking trail of about 8 kilometers connects the mountain with nearby Stollenmundloch cave and Freiberger Brunnen spring, requiring around 2.5 hours to complete. Sturdy footwear is recommended, and visitors should be prepared for forested terrain with water sources along the way.

The summit tower, built in 1913 to plans by architect Otto Eberbach, is 26 metres high and cost 20,000 marks raised by a tower-building association. It carries the amateur radio relay DB0YK, equipped for emergency communications. On clear days the view reaches the Erbeskopf in the Hunsrück, the Donnersberg, the Vosges and even the Hornisgrinde in the Black Forest, 112 km away.
