geography

location

The high side is located in the northeast part of the Rothaar Mountains in the Sauerland-Rothaar Mountains Nature Park . Its peak rises in the urban area of Hallenberg almost 15 m east of the border with that of Winterberg and about 300 m west of the border with Medebach . The mountain is located about 4.5 km southeast of the Winterberg core town, 3.5 km south-southeast of Elkeringhausen , 2.7 km north-northwest of Züschen (both to Winterberg) and 3.8 km (both as the crow flies ) northwest of Hesborn (to Hallenberg).

The watershed between the Orke in the north and the Liese in the south runs over the wooded mountain from which several small springs arise . The Hesborner Weg hiking trail runs on its south side .

Minor peaks

Since the Prussian new admission at the end of the 19th century until the second half of the 20th century, the high side was labeled twice on the measuring table pages 1: 25,000 - from the north as high side and from the south as Großer Bromberg . The mountain is also referred to as "Great Bromberg" in the natural spatial structure from 1963. This designation makes sense insofar as the South Summit of Mount as Little Bromberg is called

In the meantime, however, this name can only be found on the 1: 5000 basemap and describes its 747.6  m high south elevation, only 200 m away , which, with a notch height of only 8.8 m, is hardly a summit, let alone a mountain can be viewed. Another kilometer to the south-southeast is the Kleine Bromberg ( 683.8  m ), which is separated by a notch at 656.6  m . A good 900 m east-southeast of the main summit, in the Medebach area, lies the 696.4  m high Dillenscheid , which, however, is only 13.2 m high. One floor below and about 1.8 km east-northeast of the main summit is the Kaltenscheid (567.5 m), the gap of which is 549.1 m, on the Orke valley.

Neighboring mountains

Neighboring mountains of the high side are the Bollerberg ( 757.7  m ) in the southeast, the Reetsberg ( 791.6  m ) and the Alte Grimme ( 754.9  m ) in the north-northeast and in the north, beyond the Orketal, as well as the Lagerstein ( 732, 1  m ) in the west-south-west, whose south-west riedel with the Großer Niggenberg ( 683.7  m ) stretches without prominent peaks to the south of the Hohe Seite, until a quite independent mountain is reached again in the Sellerberg ( 672.6  m ).

Natural allocation

The Hohe Seite belongs in the natural spatial main unit group Süderbergland (No. 33) in the main unit Rothaargebirge (with Hochsauerland ) (333) to the subunit Hohe Seite (333.7). The landscape leads to the west-north-west into the Harfeld natural area (333.56) and to the south-east, including the Bollerberg, into the natural area Hallenberger Hügelland (332.41), which belongs to the subunit Medebacher Bucht (332.4) in the main unit of the East Sauerland mountain range (332) .

Mountain height

The high side is 752.5  m high. In the area of ​​the summit region, the German basic map shows several height details : 752  m , 751.5  m and 750.4  m in between .

Protected areas

North of the high side are parts of the nature reserve Glindfeld Forest Reserve (LP Winterberg) ( CDDA no. 389938; designated 2008; 2.1  km² in size), to the east those of the NSG Waldreservat Glindfeld (LP Medebach) (CDDA no. 319281; 2002; 21.53 km²) and the NSG Liesetal extends to the south (CDDA no. 164454; 1190; 50  ha ). On the summit region and the southern mountainous areas are parts of the protected landscape Hall Wald Landscape (CDDA No. 345001;. 2004; 23.25 square kilometers). Areas of the Fauna-Flora-Habitat- Area Waldreservat Glindfeld-Orketal (with side valleys) (FFH No. 4817-304; 29.97 km²) and south of the mountain extend those of the FFH area Liesetal -Hilmesberg (FFH no. 4817-305; 1 km²). Parts of the European bird sanctuary Medebacher Bucht (VSG no. 4717-401; 138.72 km²) lie on almost the entire mountain .

Traffic and walking

Due to the north of the high side lying Orke tal with the Vildischen ground leads between the circuit road  50 at Elkeringhausen and the national road  617 at Medelon a guideway and southwest by the some of the mountain preferred Nuhne tal the Federal Highway 236 ( winter mountain - Zuschen - Hallenberg ). Forest and hiking trails lead from these roads to the mountain.
