The Bichtenberg is a 400-metre-high hill in the western Wasgau, a region on the Franco-German border that includes the southern part of the Palatine Forest and the northern part of the Vosges.
To the north is the Lemberg hamlet of Salzwoog.
Three kilometres west lies the Salzwoog Devil's Table.
[1] The Bichteberg, which is made of bunter sandstone[2] is entirely covered in mixed forest crossed by several tracks and forest roads.
One route to the summit is also suitable for mountain bikes.
