geography

location

The hangar stone rises in the northeast part of the Habichtswald Nature Park . Its summit is 1.5 km south of the Calden district of Fürstenwald and 1.9 km west-northwest of the Ahnatal district of Weimar ; it is located in the municipality of Calden a few meters northwest of the border with Ahnatal. While the terrain leads to the southwest over the Helfensteine ​​( 509.8  m ) to the 2.3 km southwest located Hohen Dörnberg ( 578.7  m ), it falls to the north into the Westuffelner depression through which the Nebelbeeke flows and to the east among other things through the valley of the village brook into that of the ancestors .

Natural allocation

The hangar stone belongs in the natural spatial main unit group West Hessian mountain and sink country (No. 34) and in the main unit Habichtswälder Bergland (342) to the subunit Dörnberg and Schreckenberge (342.3). The landscape falls to the north into the natural area Westuffelner Senke (343.50), which belongs to the sub-unit North Habichtswälder Vorland (343.5) , and to the east into the sub-unit Kassel Basin (343.3), both of which are part of the main unit West Hessian Valley (343).

Watershed and waters

The hangar stone, like the Hohe Dörnberg , is on the watershed between Fulda and Diemel , part of the Diemel-Eder / Fulda / Weser watershed . While the Dorfbach ( Servitutgraben ; 4.8 km long) flowing eastwards drains through the Ahne into the Fulda, the Nebelbeeke (10.8 km) coming from the Hohen Dörnberg and heading a little west of the hangar stone to the Westuffelner Senke flows approximately to the northwest through the warmth in the diemel. Finally, Fulda and Diemel flow into the Weser . The small Hangarsteinsee (popularly known as the slope ) extends below the hangar stone in a former basalt quarry .

Transport links and hiking

The district road  30 runs northeast past the hangar stone. The Volkmarsen – Vellmar-Obervellmar railway, which is also served by the RegioTram Kassel , runs roughly parallel to it with stops in Fürstenwald and Weimar . The Märchenlandweg trail leads past the mountain through Fürstenwald and Weimar and the Kassel-Steig through Weimar . The mountain can be reached, for example, on field and forest paths that come from the Dörnberg massif or branch off from the K 30 or from the two hiking trails.
