The Birkenberg, at 533.4 m above sea level (HN),[1] is the highest point in the Ohm Hills. It is located in the county Eichsfeld, northern Thuringia, Germany.
The unforested Birkenberg rises in the centre of the Ohm Hills just under 1 km north of Kaltohmfeld, a north-northeastern village in the municipality of Leinefelde-Worbis. An ascent of the hill can be made via a cul-de-sac that runs from Kaltohmfeld towards the summit. Only the last part of the route has to be undertaken on foot.
