The Staufenberg is 472.2 m above sea level. NHN in front of the Gahrenberg ( 472.1 m ) the highest mountain in the Reinhardswald low mountain range in the Kassel district in Hesse .
Geographical location
The wooded Staufenberg is located in northern Hesse about 3.5 km northwest of Veckerhagen (a part of the municipality of Reinhardshagen ) and about 7.5 km (distances as the crow flies ) east of Hombressen (a district of Hofgeismar ).
The southern branch of the Staufenberg is called "Kleiner Staufenberg" ( 421 m ), not far northwest of the mountain is the first German Friedwald . The water-rich Holzape , which is the longest flowing water in the Reinhardswald and a south-eastern tributary of the Diemel , rises on its western slope . The small Tiefenbach rises a little to the southwest of the mountain peak and flows eastward into the Weser .
Natural allocation
The Staufenberg belongs in the natural spatial main unit group Weser-Leine-Bergland (No. 37) and in the main unit Solling, Bramwald and Reinhardswald (370) to the sub-unit Reinhardswald (370.4). Its landscape falls to the east into the Weser breakthrough valley (370.3).
Diemel-Weser watershed
A section of the Diemel-Weser watershed runs over the Staufenberg summit , which is part of the rather elongated Diemel-Eder / Fulda / Weser watershed : the water of all streams, such as the Holzape from Staufenberg, reaches earlier or later through the Diemel the Weser ; on the other hand, the very short rivers , for example the Tiefenbach, which flow in an easterly direction, reach the Weser directly after a few kilometers.
