The Mainz mountain (also Moret ) is 227 m above sea level. NN high, wooded hill on the district of the southern Hessian city of Dieburg . It represents the highest elevation of the Messel hill country , which geologically is to be regarded as the northernmost part of the Odenwald . The Mainzer Berg is on the L 3094 between Darmstadt and Dieburg, about two kilometers southeast of the Messel pit .
On its top there is a 90.5 meter high telecommunications tower of Deutsche Telekom AG that can be seen from afar, and to the south of it is the Naturfreundehaus on the Moret, which is a popular excursion destination. There is also a quarry of the Odenwälder Hartstein-Industrie (OHI) to the west of the summit .
In 1971 the almost 3 hectare ski and toboggan slope was created. A drag lift was in operation from 1972 to 1984 . The elevator was dismantled because of the increasingly poor snowfall.
Due to bushes on the north side, the ski and toboggan slope is a bit smaller today.
