Hohes Holz

The Hohes Holz (literally: "High Wood") is an extended forest area on the western rim of the otherwise open, agriculturally intensively-farmed Magdeburg Börde region in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt.

The hilly region forms the southern part of a ridge that stretches from the Lappwald range in the north along the upper Aller river to the Bode basin near Oschersleben.

Three of the Aller's source streams rise on the northern slopes of the Hohes Holz, which thereby forms part of the Weser-Elbe watershed.

Politically the region of the Hohes Holz belongs to the municipalities of Ausleben, Eggenstedt, Stadt Oschersleben (Bode) and Wormsdorf im Börde district.

The Hohes Holz hills, designated as a protected area, extend over about 15 square kilometres (5.8 sq mi).
