The Grünten rises as one of the northernmost mountains in the Allgäu Alps on the border of the municipalities Burgberg im Allgäu, whose core town is at the southwest foot, and Rettenberg, whose core town is at the north foot. Its summit is about 5.5 km northeast of Sonthofen. To the west extends the valley of the Iller, into which the Ostrach flows near Sonthofen, and to the south that of the Starzlach (with the Starzlachklamm), which flows into the Ostrach near the Erzflöße district of Burgberg.
