The Kaiblinger Kogel is 752  m above sea level. A. high ridge in the south-eastern Traunviertel in Upper Austria .

Location and landscape

The Kaiblinger Kogel is located between the Lower Steyrtal near Steinbach an der Steyr , and the Ennstal near Ternberg , with the culmination on the municipal boundary .

Schweinsegg is on the west ridge , to the southwest the Bäckengraben goes by the houses Bäckengraben zur Enns, downstream from Ternberg , northwest a stream (led as a stream from the Kaiblinger Kogel) near Schattleiten to the Enns feeder Schädlbach . To the east is the basin of the Färberbach , which flows into the Steyr in Steinbach , with the Zehetner houses .

The mountain is at a 706  m above sea level. A. high saddle near Gasser upstream of the Herndleck massif  ( 1026  m above sea level ), to the north it closes at 506  m above sea level. A. high saddle of Grünburgerstraße (Grünburg / Steinbach - Ternberg,  L1328 ) the high-lift train ( 609  m above sea level ).

The mountain represents the southern end of the flysch zone of the eastern Upper Austrian pre-Alps ( flysch zone between Krems and Enns ) or the Enns and Steyrtal flysch mountains, the Herndleck south already belongs to the limestone pre-Alps ( Schoberstein group ). It forms a typical conical dome. The north slope of the mountain is forested, the south slope is open agricultural area.

geology

The Flysch is Altlengbach formation , with a series of cement marls on the ridge line (Wende Kreide – Tertiary, approx. 90–60 million years old).
