Hohe Loog, Mountain summit in Haardt range, Germany

Hohe Loog is a 618.7 m mountain in the Haardt range, within the Palatine Forest biosphere reserve. Its wooded summit holds sandstone rock outcrops and the Hohe Loog House, a hut run by the Palatine Forest Club. East of the summit lies the Hohe-Loog-Ebene, a plain of nearly 2 km² at about 583 m.

The name Hohe Loog derives from Loog, a term for a boundary marker, pointing to the mountain's role in marking borders. The summit region is built of Buntsandstein layers of the Rehberg and Schlossberg beds and the Karlstal rock zone, 251 to 243 million years old. The Hohe Loog House near the summit is run by the Palatine Forest Club.

The name Loog comes from an old term for a boundary marker, a reference to the mountain's role in marking territorial borders.

The Hohe-Loog-Ebene east of the summit, a flat area of almost 2 km² at about 580 m, is used by walkers as an open resting place.

The hike to the summit starts from several trailheads, with the Hahnenschritt saddle parking area being one of the most convenient starting points. The route is well-marked and suitable for hikers of varying fitness levels.

The wooded summit itself yields no view; the panorama opens instead from the Hohe Loog House just below it, looking across to the Kalmit massif and the Rhine Valley. East of the summit lies the Hohe-Loog-Ebene, a plain of almost 2 km² at about 580 m.
