List of mountains and hills of the Taunus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Topographic map of the Taunus

This list of mountains and hills of the Taunus contains a selection of the highest and most notable mountains and hills in the Taunus and its foothills in the German states of Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate. The Taunus is part of the Rhenish Massif, part of the German Central Uplands, and has three nature parks: Taunus (formerly Hochtaunus), Nassau and Rhine-Taunus.

The mountains and hills in the table below are initially sorted by height in metres (m) above sea level (NHN) (source [1] unless otherwise stated) The table may be resorted by any of five columns by clicking on the symbol at the top. In the column headed "Mountain or hill" alternative names are given in brackets, small text and italics. In this column, when there is more than one entry of the same name, they are distinguished by a place name.

The abbreviations used in the table are explained below.
