geography

location

The goat rises in the northeast part of northern Hesse in the Fulda-Werra-Bergland in the geo-nature park Frau-Holle-Land (Werra Valley, Meissner, Kaufunger Forest) . Its summit lies between Harmuthsachsen in the north, the core town of Waldkappel in the east, Mäckelsdorf in the south-southwest and Wollstein (monastery near Waldkappel-Harmuthsachsen) in the west.

Parts of the fauna-flora-habitat area Werra- und Wehretal (FFH-Nr. 4825-302; 244.8191  km² ) are located on the wooded goat's peg .

The stream Im Hohl flows northwest of the Ziegenküppel as a southwest tributary of the weir , which runs north of the elevation along the federal road 7 through Harmuthsachsen and into which the Schemmerbach flows in the eastern Waldkappel . South of the survey flows through the baiting passing through Mäckelsdorf and opens a little further in the southeast Schemmerbach.

The district road  33 runs parallel to the B 7 between the two villages , and in Waldkappel it meets the state road  3226 that branches off from the B 7 . The latter leads southeast past the elevation upwards along the Schemmerbach to Friemen. In the past, the Leinefelde – Treysa line ran roughly parallel to this road as a section of the Kanonenbahn .
