The Kohlberger Höhenrück (also: Kohlberger Höhe ) is a natural subunit in the northern Upper Palatinate hill country .
Natural allocation and structure
The Kohlberger Höhenrücke is a subordinate natural area in the north of the Upper Palatinate hill country .
Since sheet 154/155 Bayreuth of the single sheets 1: 200,000 for the manual of the natural spatial structure of Germany has not been published, there is no detailed breakdown for the northern part of the Upper Palatinate hill country . The Kohlberg ridge is regularly mentioned as a natural area in relevant specialist literature.
Important places
- in the district of Neustadt an der Waldnaab
- Kohlberg with the Röthenbach district
- Neudorf , Ödhof and Gelpertsricht
- in the area of the Amberg-Sulzbach district

geography
The Kohlberg ridge extends east-west from the Grünauer Höhe directly on the Naab south-west of Luhe-Wildenau over the saddle from Neudorf bei Luhe , the Schwarzberg and the Eichenberg to the Rödlasberg south of Massenricht .
The Kohlberger ridge is a shed slab slightly to the north . Opposite it are two tectonically caused collapse zones in the north and south. Weiden Bay borders in the north . In the south, the Kohlberg ridge is bounded by the Luhe line and, through this, delimited from the Hirschau-Schnaittenbacher valley .
geology
The Rotliegend sediments of the Kohlberger Höhenrücken were created in a desert climate from the erosion debris of the Variscan Mountains following the tropical to subtropical Carbon Age in which extensive swamp forests were found in the area of the Kohlberger Höhenrücken.
