At the foot of the Rimdidim lies Steinau in the north-west and Messbach in the north-north-east , both districts of the Fischbachtal community, the highest point of which is a few meters north of the summit; the north slope drops off steeply. The actual summit plateau and the southern part of the mountain form the north-west of the forest area of the municipality of Fränkisch-Crumbach. A narrow corner of the Winterkasten district , a district of Lindenfels , extends from the southwest to near the summit.
