Geography
Parent rangeNorthern Black Forest

The Rinkenkopf is a mountain, 760 m high,[1] on the territory of Baiersbronn in the Northern Black Forest. The wooded mountain ridge is bounded in the south by the Murg valley and in the northeast by the valley of the Tonbach. To the northwest a roughly 50-metre-deep saddle (the Sattelei) separates it from the foothills of the Grindenschwarzwald.

On the mountain are the Rinkenwall (Rinkenmauer), Rinken Tower (Rinkenturm) and two transmission towers. Several hiking trails lead there, including the Murgleiter and der Genießerpfad to the Sattelei Hut.
