The Grafenberg is a mountain near the village of the same name in the Grafenberg municipality in the Reutlingen district in Baden-Württemberg .
description
The village, which lies mainly south of the summit, almost completely surrounds the mountain top, only the western slope is free of buildings. The hilltop offers a northward view of the southern districts of Stuttgart on the Fildern .
From a natural perspective, the mountain, which belongs to the lower area of the Neuffen foothills of the foreland of the central Swabian Alb, is a rounded hump with a diameter of around one kilometer, which towers over its immediate surroundings about a hundred meters high. It is made of basalt tuff and is an erosion-resistant volcanic hardened stone at the site of a chimney of the Swabian volcano, which went extinct 11 million years ago in the Miocene .
About a height of 463.9 m above sea level. NHN reach the summit runs the watershed between the basins of the Autmut in the northeast and Erin in the southwest. The Ettwiesenbach , initially known as the Helfersbach , rises at the south - west foot , while the more distant Steidenbach collects the outflow on the west side , both of which run west and south-west to the Erms. The Reutenbach , which arises on the lower northern slope, as well as the Lailesbach, which initially rises from the summit on the eastern slope, and its Lauterbach receiving water, which begins a little further south-east from the highest point , drain northeast to the Autmut.
