The Brandenkopf is 945.2 m above sea level (NHN)[1] and one of the highest mountains in the Central Black Forest in southern Germany.

The Brandenkopf is well developed with roads and footpaths (including the Hansjakobweg II and a link to the West Way, 3.5 km away) from several directions.

This is a stone observation tower, which has extensive views over the Black Forest countryside and, on clear days, as far as the Alps, Vosges and Swabian Jura.

The Black Forest Club maintains a hiking home and attached café on the Brandenkopf.

In summer 2002 a second wind turbine, the Bürgerwindrad Brandenkopf, was opened about 350 metres west of the hiking home.
