Location The hill lies on the territory of the hamlet of
Hofstätten in the municipality of
Wilgartswiesen and is part of the
Frankenweide, which is a central massif within the mountain range. On the Langer Kopf there is a former
US Air Force radio relay site.
Surrounding area The Mosisberg is the second northernmost of a line of four peaks that exceed 600 m. To the north is the
Eschkopf (608.3 m), to the south are the
Hortenkopf (606.2 m) and the
Weißenberg (ca. 610 m) The
Palatine Watershed between the
Moselle/
Middle Rhine (west) and
Upper Rhine (east) runs over the Eschkopf, Mosisberg and Hortenkopf. In a high hollow about 700 metres southeast of the Mosisberg summit there was once a
raised bog, the
Mosisbruch, which was supplied by a two kilometre long brook that which shortly afterwards emptied from the right into the upper reaches of the
Wellbach. == Features ==
