The Kreuzberg is a 1715.6  m high mountain in the Bavarian Prealps on the border between Tyrol and Bavaria . It is the summit of a spur from the Hinterer Sonnwendjoch massif northwards to Bavaria. A 1567  m high secondary summit to the north of the main summit bears the name Kreuzbergspitzl .

On the German side, Kreuzberg separates areas of the communities Schliersee in the west and Bayrischzell in the east. On the east side of the mountain at 1305  m , below the rocky summit wall, lies the Kreuzbergalm , from which one overlooks the Kloo-Ascher valley (also known as Kloaschau valley ) running to the east . North of the mountain, the 1143  m high Elendsattel pass offers a transition from the Kloo-Ascher valley to the Valepp valley , the region south of the Spitzingsee .
