Rothaar Mountains

The 2303rd highest mountain range in the world

784m

The Rothaar Mountains (Rothaargebirge, pronounced [ˈʁoːthaːɐ̯ɡəˌbɪʁɡə], also Rotlagergebirge), or Rothaar, is a low mountain range reaching heights of up to 843.1 m in North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse, Germany. It is believed that its name must once have been Rod-Hard-Gebirge, or "the cleared forest mountain range", as the range has nothing whatsoever to do with the colour red (rot in German), nor with hair (Haar).

Location: Germany.
