It is located in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship , about ten kilometers northeast of Elbląg (Elbing) and one kilometer northwest of Milejewo (Trunz) . After this place it got its official name in 1958, it is also known in the Polish translation of Butterberg as Góra Maslana.
The Elbinger Höhe has been part of the Krajobrazowy Wysoczyzny Elbląskiej landscape protection park since 1985 . It is part of the Baltic ridge , which was raised as a moraine from the Scandinavian inland ice south of the Baltic Sea.
