Hohenberg, Mountain summit in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
The 552-meter sandstone peak rises within the Palatinate Forest, offering views across the Rhine plain, Odenwald, Black Forest, and Vosges mountains.
The summit contained a French telegraph station in 1794, connecting Paris through Metz to Landau until the Electoral Palatinate transfer to Bavaria in 1816.
The Birkweiler Fire Brigade maintains a yearly tradition through the Hohenberg Festival, celebrated on May 1st at the mountain summit.
Multiple hiking paths lead to the summit, including the 6.4-kilometer Rund-Wanderweg Hohenberg trail that circles the mountain through forest terrain.
The Schumacher rocks at the western summit provide launching points for hang gliders while offering views of Trifels, Anebos, and Scharfenberg castles.
