The hill is located entirely within the territory of the municipality of Bobenthal, from which it derives its name. It lies about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) east of the main settlement. In the west it descends relatively gently to the valley of the Wieslauter stream; in the east it drops considerably more steeply into the valley of the Reisbach. The Bobenthaler Kopf is covered by mixed woods. A footpath leads to the summit from the south.[1] It forms the centre of the 319 hectares (790 acres) Bobenthaler Knopf Core Zone in the Palatine Forest Nature Park.[2] About 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) to the south lie the Rittersteins of Löffelkreuz and Eselsschleifhäuschen.[3]
