The Sengelsberg is a 433.8 meter high mountain in the southern Eichsfeld in the Unstrut-Hainich-Kreis , Thuringia ( Germany ).

location

The Sengelsberg is located on the northwestern edge of the Hainich in the western part of the Unstrut-Hainich district, immediately northwest of Heyerode and southeast of Diedorf . The district town of Mühlhausen is about nine kilometers to the northeast. The Sengelsberg is one of the few mountains in the southern Eichsfeld that belong directly to the Hainich.

Natural classification

The mountain counts after the natural spatial structure in the sheet Kassel to Grundbachtal (= Lempertsbach) (Nr. 483.51) within the natural region Hainich (no. 483.5) of the Northwest edge panel Thuringian basin (no. 483). Orographically, however , the Sengelsberg is to be added to the Hainich in the narrower sense .

According to the structure within Thuringia ( The Natural Spaces of Thuringia ) it is still assigned to the Hainich-Dün-Hainleite unit, the Lempertsbach valley here is the border to the Werrabergland-Hörselberge unit .

particularities

The predominantly forested mountain, only to the north there are some agricultural areas, already borders on the built-up location of Heyerode in the southeast . The forest area itself belongs to the LSG Mühlhäuser Stadtwald within the Eichsfeld-Hainich-Werratal nature park .

South of the mountain, the state road L 2104 runs from Heyerode to Diedorf, as well as the former Mühlhausen – Treffurt railway line and today's Unstrut-Werra cycle path. To the west of Sengelsberg, a former railway cut is designated as part of the geological route (No. 6) through the nature park.
