Stöcklewald

The Stöcklewald is a mountain, 1,068.2 m above sea level (NHN),[1] in the southern part of the Central Black Forest in Germany between the towns of Furtwangen and Triberg, each about 5 kilometres distant, in the county of Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis.

On its northern slopes rises the Gutach, which flows from here in a northwesterly direction through the Schönwald Highlands and drops over its northeastern edge as the Triberg Waterfalls.

The northern foot of its gently-sloping domed summit may be reached on local Landesstraßen and Kreisstraßen, both from the aforementioned towns as well as from Schönwald and Brigach.

From there a road runs up to the summit, where there is a Gasthaus, a hiker's home belonging to the Black Forest Club and the Stöcklewald Tower.

This is a significant reason why the Stöcklewald peak is so clearly uplifted above the eastern slopes of the Black Forest, because it has retained a remnant in the fault zone of the bunter sandstone that originally lay on the basement.
