Luginsland, Mountain summit in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
Luginsland is a mountain summit in Baden-Württemberg rising to about 343 meters with gently sloping sides covered in dense forest. The surrounding landscape shows the typical features of this foothills region, with extensive woodlands and open viewpoints spread across the hillside.
The mountain served historically as an orientation point for settlements along the Rhine and shaped how communities developed in this border area. Its position allowed people across centuries to monitor the landscape and navigate the region effectively.
The name comes from an old word meaning 'lookout land', reflecting how people have always used this hilltop to see far and wide. Today locals and visitors gather here to enjoy views and experience the landscape that shapes life in this border region.
The hill can be reached via marked hiking paths from Bad Bellingen, with parking available at the base. Visit during warmer months when the trails are dry and visibility is best for enjoying the views across the region.
From this vantage point visitors can see three countries at once: Germany, France, and Switzerland, a spot known as Dreiländereck or the three-country corner. This rare sight line makes it special for hikers wanting to grasp how borders meet in this landscape.
