It is located in the urban area of ​​the Bergisch city ​​of Wuppertal and, in addition to the Burgholzbachtal, consists of the surrounding elevations such as the Burggrafenberg , Peemannsberg , Vonkelner Berg , Neuenberg and the foothills of the Nesselberg , the Cronenberg and the Hahnerberg . In the south, the Kürken mountain , the Herichhauser Bach valley , the Wahlert locality and the Jacobsberg belong to the Burgholz Mountains . The western Wupperengal (338.03) natural spatial unit connects to the west , while the Lichtscheider ridge surrounds the area on all other sides. Numerous side valley valleys sloping down to Burgholzbach or Herichhauser Bach, partly water-bearing side valley valleys, locally called Siepen or Siefen, structure the terrain.

The remains of protoindustrial hammer mills have been preserved at Burgholzbach, while a medieval section fortification called Burggraben is located on Burggrafenberg .
