Rehberg, Mountain summit in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
Rehberg is a mountain summit in the Palatinate Forest reaching roughly 577 meters high with visible sandstone formations on its slopes. A tower stands at the top, offering a vantage point across the surrounding wooded terrain.
The area gained protected status in the late 20th century and became part of a regional conservation area. The landscape reflects a shift from earlier settlement patterns to modern preservation of the forest.
The summit tower draws hikers seeking views across the forest and plains below. Over time, climbing here has become a way for visitors to connect with the surrounding landscape.
The mountain sits south of Annweiler with clearly marked trails leading to the top that connect with other paths in the region. Sturdy footwear is recommended for the walk up.
On clear days, the tower views extend far enough to reveal three separate mountain ranges: the Odenwald, Black Forest, and Vosges. This broad vista sets the location apart as a rare vantage point in the area.
