Rothenbachkopf, Mountain summit in Vosges, France.

Rothenbachkopf is a mountain summit in the Vosges range standing at approximately 1,315 meters (4,314 feet) in the Haut-Rhin department. The peak rises as a rocky formation of shale and greywacke, creating steep slopes that can be seen from surrounding valleys.

The summit lies on the crest between Wildenstein and Mittlach in the Haut-Rhin, continued north by the Rainkopf at the Vosges department limit. The Route des Crêtes runs a few metres west of the top, and the GR5 long-distance path crosses its slopes. On 28 December 1965 two inexperienced German hikers died here, lost in fog and cold.

The name is Alsatian: Rothen (red), bach (stream) and kopf (head), giving the French Vosges equivalent "tête de Rouge Goutte". The summit was also called "roche d'Angoisse", from "roche d'Angoy", meaning a narrow place, after the tight passage between Rainkopf and Rothenbachkopf. The GR5 long-distance trail crosses the slopes.

The peak can be reached via several well-marked hiking trails that connect with paths through the surrounding region. Local mountain shelters and rest areas are positioned along popular routes to help visitors plan their day.

The summit sits almost exactly where the Vosges chain splits in two, giving views of both ridge lines with the Thur valley between them. The name is Alsatian for "red stream head", rendered on the Lorraine side as "tête de Rouge Goutte".
