Storkenkopf, Mountain summit in Haut-Rhin, France.
The Storkenkopf reaches an elevation of 1,366 meters and stands as the second-highest point in the Vosges Mountains of northeastern France.
The mountain territory spans across three municipalities of Haut-Rhin department: Saint-Amarin, Geishouse, and Lautenbachzell, which developed their communities around this natural landmark.
The name Storkenkopf derives from German language elements, reflecting the historical Germanic influence in the Alsace region of France.
Visitors can access the summit through a 2-kilometer forest service road that connects to the Route des Crêtes, with the Ferme du Haag providing accommodation.
The mountain structure consists of crystalline schist, a metamorphic rock formation that characterizes the geological composition of this section of the Vosges range.
