geography
The summit of the Vogelsangberg lies in the Grinzing district of Döbling ; The border with the cadastral community Weidling (community Klosterneuburg ) runs just north of the steep, wooded hilltop . Some hiking trails connect the Vogelsangberg with the 30 m higher Hermannskogel to the west , the Kahlenberg (485 m) to the northeast and the Latisberg in the south . Geologically, the mountain, as the northeastern branch of the Eastern Alps, belongs to the sandstone or flysch zone , which is composed of quartz and limestone , marl and other sediments .
etymology
Field names such as Vogelsang have been derived from signal fireplaces ( sengen and Fackel , especially in southern German dialects Fåckel ). That could also be the case here.
flora
Like the neighboring Hermannskogel, the Vogelsangberg has a rare summit ash forest , in which the common ash dominates, but also the sycamore elm and the sycamore maple .
