Stolzenberg, Mountain summit in Bavarian Mangfallgebirge, Germany

Stolzenberg is a mountain summit in the Mangfallgebirge range, standing at 1,609 meters in elevation. The peak features multiple trails that traverse through forested areas and across alpine slopes.

The sources record no historical events, dates or figures for the Stolzenberg. Its documented record is geological: the east-west summit ridge rises from Kössener Schichten in the north as a thin, almost vertically folded rocky layer of Upper Rhaetian reef limestone, unlike the softer, wooded Rotkopf and grassy Roßkopf to the northwest, which are made of Jurassic marl.

The usual routes start from the Valeppalm near Spitzingsee or from the Diensthütte Ankerstube, passing the Stolzenalm; a traverse to the Rotkopf is also possible. The east-west summit ridge rises from Kössener Schichten as a thin, near-vertical folded layer of Upper Rhaetian reef limestone, unlike the softer, wooded Rotkopf and grassy Roßkopf nearby.
