Wintersberg, Mountain summit in Hesse, Germany
Wintersberg rises 434 meters above sea level in the Mittelgebirge Spessart range, forming a natural boundary between the Hasel and Orb river valleys.
The adjacent Wegscheide hill contained Stalag IX-B prisoner camp during World War II, which has since transformed into a children's summer camp facility.
The mountain and surrounding Spessart region reflect traditional German forestry practices that shaped local communities and their relationship with woodland resources.
Several marked hiking trails lead to the summit, with the Hintere Priem-Hütte mountain shelter located 491 meters southwest providing rest facilities.
The mountain ranks as number 92 out of 259 peaks in Main-Kinzig-Kreis and number 83 out of 173 in Naturpark Hessischer Spessart by elevation.
