The Kobelberg is a forested mountain ridge running from north to south within the municipality of Wiesenfelden in the Bavarian Forest in southern Germany. It lies south of the village of Schiederhof between the source regions of the Großer Leitenbach to the east and the Breimbach to the west. Its three summits have heights of 692 m, 698.3 m und 703 m.[1]
