Homert, Mountain summit in Bergisches Land, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

Homert is the highest point of the Bergisches Land and the Oberbergischer Kreis, reaching 519 m above sea level. Its summit lies in the Naturpark Bergisches Land, about 1 km north of the Gummersbach district Oberrengse. The Rengse stream rises on its southern slope and flows into the Aggertalsperre, while the A 45 motorway passes about 200 m east of the summit.

The Homert lies in the Süderbergland natural region, assigned to the Mittelbiggebergland unit and the Lister-Bigge-Bergland area. The German base map gives its height as 518.2 m, while the renewed summit cross and the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation maps state 519 m; many maps wrongly show 526 m. A trigonometric point stands about 350 m west of the summit at 511.4 m.

The summit cross was renewed and gives the height as 519 m, while many maps still show 526 m; the German base map gives 518.2 m. A trigonometric point stands about 350 m west of the top at 511.4 m. The summit lies in the Marienheide-Lieberhausen protected landscape, designated in 1982.

The summit lies about 200 metres west of the A 45 motorway on its Meinerzhagen–Drolshagen stretch, which reaches 487.7 metres near the Neuenschmiede rest area. The Rengse rises on the southern slope and flows into the eastern arm of the Aggertalsperre; the small Brachtsiepen rises to the north. A trigonometric point stands about 350 metres west of the summit at 511.4 metres.
