geography
location
The Stein rises in the southern part of the Rothaargebirge in the Wittgensteiner Land . Its summit is in the Puderbach district 1.8 km north-northeast of the Bad Laaspher district of Puderbach, 2.3 km south-southwest of the Bad Berleburg district of Richstein and 4.5 km (as the crow flies ) north-northwest of the Biedenkopfer district of Wallau . While the border from Bad Laasphe to Bad Berleburg runs about 100 m northwest of the summit in the southeast of the Sauerland-Rothaargebirge nature park, the Hessian Lahn-Dill-Bergland nature park with the local Biedenkopfer urban area closes around 400 m east of the summit as part of its eastern flank on. The mountain is forested, although there is a wild meadow near the south of the summit and a large fallow area in the north.
Natural allocation
The Stein belongs in the natural spatial main unit group Süderbergland (No. 33) in the main unit Rothaargebirge (with Hochsauerland ) (333) to the subunits Südwittgensteiner Bergland ( Wittgensteiner Lahnbergland ; 333.2; northwest) and bagpipe (333.3; southeast).
Rhine-Weser watershed
The stone is located on the Rhine-Weser watershed . The water of the Leisebach , which rises northeast of the mountain summit, flows with that of its tributary Kauzwiese (also known as Großwiesenbach ), whose source is north-northwest, through the Eder and Fulda into the Weser . The waters of Hainbach , which rises to the east, and Puderbach , whose source is located to the south , flow in the opposite direction , with that of its tributary Kirschwiesenbach , which rises to the west, through the Lahn into the Rhine .

North-north-west of the summit region is the fauna-flora-habitat area Finkental and lean grassland near Didoll (FFH No. 5016-301; 55 ha) and on the Hessian side, where the Hessisches Rothaargebirge bird sanctuary is also located (VSG No. 4917-401 ; 272.73 km²), the FFH area Lahnhang lies between Biedenkopf and Marburg (FFH no. 5017-305; 94.57 km²).
