Hornisgrinde transmitter, Communication tower on Hornisgrinde mountain, Sasbachwalden, Germany.

The concrete telecommunications tower reaches 206 meters in height and functions as a transmission facility for regional broadcasting networks in northern Black Forest.

The Hornisgrinde transmitter, constructed between 1971 and 1972, has served as a primary network facility for Südwestrundfunk, formerly Südwestfunk, since its completion.

The transmitter structure marks the summit of Hornisgrinde mountain at 1,125 meters, making it a reference point for hikers exploring the northern Black Forest trails.

Multiple hiking paths lead to the transmitter site, with the Hans Reymann Road loop from Aschenplatz extending 11.2 kilometers through the natural landscape.

The transmitter's location within Naturpark Schwarzwald Mitte/Nord provides clear signal coverage across the region while maintaining technical operations at high altitude.
