The Falkenstein forms a small, isolated mountain range stretching north-northeast. It stretches over 1.9 kilometers but is only 1 kilometer wide. To the north is the 785 meter high Söldenberg. The Falkenstein range has two peaks - a 1092 meter high pre-summit with a summit cross in the north (north peak) and the actual 1181 meter high main peak at the southern end of the range.
Orographically, the southwest side of the Falkenstein range is separated from the Kienbergl (1135 m) in the west by a rather narrow valley. A small stream flows through this valley, ending in the Zwingsee at the western foot of the mountain, and it is also crossed by the German Alpine Road (B 305). The east side of the Falkenstein forms the wide valley, which separates it from Scharnkopf (1356 m) and Gruberhörndl (1493 m). The Falkenseebach flows through the Weittal into the Falkensee and then further north in the direction of Inzell. The Falkenseebach rises in several springs at the southern end of the wide valley west below the Great Tower (1120 m). Just under 900 meters southwest of the main summit, the so-called Weißbach waterhole also flows out of the so-called water hole at the end of the Weittal, which, however, continues south past Scharmann in the direction of the Weißbach glacier garden. The watershed between the catchment area of the Rote Traun and the Saalach runs between these two source areas. At the northeast end of the Falkenstein below the Söldenberg is the Krottensee, whose small outflow flows into the Falkenseebach on the left.
