The Stöcklewald is 1069.2 m above sea level. NHN high mountain in the southern part of the Middle Black Forest between the cities of Furtwangen and Triberg in the Schwarzwald-Baar district, each around five kilometers away . The Black Forest only reaches or exceeds its height in a northerly direction in the area of the Schliffkopf and the Hornisgrinde .
location
The European main watershed between the Rhine and the Danube runs over the mountain . The Gutach rises on its northern slope and flows from here in a north-westerly direction through the Schönwalder plateau and forms the Triberg waterfalls on its north-eastern edge . The brooks of the Breg flow towards the southeast .
The northern foot of its flat crest can be reached via state and district roads from these locations as well as from Schönwald and Brigach . From there a road leads to the summit with an inn, a hikers' home of the Black Forest Association and the Stöcklewald tower.
The boundary between the Furtwang district of Rohrbach and the municipality of Schönwald runs over the summit, while the Triberg district of Nussbach also has a share on the northern slope. The summit with the tower and the hiking home are in the Furtwangen-Rohrbach district.
Stöcklewald Tower
The approximately 25-meter-high observation tower was built in 1894 by the Triberg branch of the Black Forest Association as a round tower on the parish of Furtwangen and inaugurated in May 1895. It is a popular destination on the Mittelweg of the Black Forest Association. From the viewing platform you can see over the central Black Forest to the Feldberg and beyond to the panorama of the Swabian Alb and the Alps from Zugspitze to Montblanc. The platform can be climbed via 127 steps.
The Stöcklewald tower is also used as a relay station for radio connections by the police, THW, fire brigade, rescue services and amateur radio. In addition, the Stöcklewald tower also serves as a radio relay station for broadband and internet coverage for the surrounding communities.
Stöcklewald camp site
The Stöcklewald campground, southwest of the summit at around 1000 m above sea level. NN , covers 5.5 hectares and belongs to the city of Furtwangen. It has been run as a sponsoring association since 1952 by the Black Forest Youth Recreation Association, under the umbrella of the Socialist Youth of Germany - Die Falken . The campground includes facilities of the Fritz-Lamm-Bildungsstätte (1956) and Kurt-Roth-Haus (2007). It was not until 1987, ten years after Fritz Lamm's death , that the educational institution was given its current name.
Surroundings
About 800 meters northeast of the summit is the Triberg gallows near the road on the Hochgericht hill ( 1020.6 m ) . Another kilometer further to the northeast is the Kesselberg ( 1025.5 m ) as a secondary peak near an important road crossing . The Brigach rises on its slopes and, as its most important tributary, the Kirnach as well. After Kesselberg the running here is Kesselberg Fault named. This is a major reason why the Stöcklewaldkopf is so clearly raised compared to the surrounding eastern Black Forest roof, because a remnant of the red sandstone layer originally lying on the basement has been preserved in the fault zone .
In the wider area of the mountain there are sights such as the Hubertus Chapel, an idyllic monument of popular piety, the Triberg waterfalls , one of the highest and most famous waterfalls in Germany, and the Brigach spring.
