The Rehberg is a partially forested mountain in the east of the Wartburg district in Thuringia , its height is 368.4  m above sea level. HN . The mountain is made of red sandstone.

The clearly recognizable corridor boundary of the districts Farnroda and Wutha (border ditch, old boundary stones) runs over the mountain . On the southern slope of the mountain, by a spring that has now been buried, lies the medieval desert of Berzigeroda, marked by a striking oak in the field until 1995. Most of the mountain was owned by the Farnrodaer estate; the eastern part was owned by the Rehhof farm belonging to Wutha .

The Rehberg, which was completely cleared in the Middle Ages, still shows many arable terraces, especially on the south side. A nameless spring rises on the north side of the mountain, on the north-east side there is a now wooded gorge, it leads to the valley in the direction of Rehhof. An old road with a connection to the Rennsteig runs past the southern flank of the mountain .

From 1985 the northern slope was designated as the construction site for the Wutha-Mölmen prefabricated housing estate. The "Rehbergsiedlung" belonging to Farnroda was built on the south-west slope as early as the 1920s; it is currently being expanded significantly (mostly single houses) by a housing program of the Thuringian state development company. The ski hut on Rehberg is reminiscent of a ski jump located there.
