Hundskopf, Mountain summit in Haut-Rhin, France

Hundskopf is a summit in the Vosges massif reaching 1,235 metres, close to the Schweisel. It lies in Haut-Rhin, about 400 km east of Paris and 11 km from La Bresse. The wooded slopes around it rise toward Le Lauchenkopf, 1,314 metres, some 2.7 km to the west.

The sources record no documented historical events, dates or map references for the Hundskopf; its written record is essentially cartographic and topographic. It appears as a named 1,235 m summit of the Vosges massif close to the Schweisel, in Haut-Rhin, about 400 km east of Paris. The nearest notable higher point, Le Lauchenkopf at 1,314 m, lies 2.7 km to the west, and La Bresse is 11.1 km away.

The name Hundskopf means "dog's head" in German, a reference to the shape of the summit as seen from the surrounding valleys. The peak lies near the Schweisel in the Vosges massif, and the wooded slopes around it are dominated by beech and fir, as on the neighbouring heights.

The summit can be reached by several hiking trails starting from different points in the region. The paths are well marked and offer varying difficulty levels that suit hikers with different experience and fitness levels.

The summit rises 1,235 metres, 2.7 km west of Le Lauchenkopf, which at 1,314 metres is the higher point of the immediate area. The nearest town is La Bresse, about 11 km to the east, and the slopes below the top are wooded.
