Joglland

The Joglland is a heavily forested low mountain region in northeastern Styria in the districts of Hartberg-Fürstenfeld and Weiz.

The region is described in the literature by the Styrian poet, Peter Rosegger, who grew up as a farmer's son in Alpl.

The Joglland lies within East Styria between the Wechsel, the upper Feistritz valley, the Safenbach and the area of Hartberg-Friedberg.

To the south are the East Styrian Hills, and to the southeast is South Burgenland – The latter already forming part of the Southeast Alpine Foreland, facing the Pannonian Plain.

The highest points of this region, with its Mittelgebirge character are the summits of the Wechsel massif – such as the Hochwechsel (1,742 m), Herrenstein (1,448 m) and Hochkogel (1,314 m) – the Wildwiesen (1,254 m), the Masenberg (1,261 m) and the Rabenwaldkogel (1,281 m).
