The Josefsberg is 1012 m above sea level. A. high mountain pass in the Türnitz Alps in Lower Austria. It leads over a local watershed of the Erlauf and has the character of a valley pass to bypass the Ötschergräben.

The pass connects the towns of Annaberg and Mitterbach and has a maximum gradient of 10%. The village of the same name is located on the top of the pass.

The Josefsberg is located in the Lower Austrian foothills of the Alps in the middle of the Ötscher Nature Park, high above the Ötschergräben. The B20, probably the best-known connection from St. Pölten to Mariazell, leads through it. On this route, a few kilometers to the east, the Annaberg must also be overcome - the names of the two passes attract many motorcyclists from central Lower Austria, especially at weekends. But mostly there is not much going on and you only enjoy your own pulse beat as musical accompaniment.
The pass nestles between the Alpl (1239 m) in the east and the Hocheck (1050 m) in the south-west. A small village of the same name invites you to refreshment. From the top of the pass you have a wonderful view of the Ötscher (1893 m) with the "Rauhen Kamm", its distinctive south-east ridge.
