    The Kornberg is 779.7 m above sea level. NHN[1] high mountain on the Albtrauf, the northern edge of the Swabian Alb. The summit of the mountain lies in the municipality of Gruibingen in the Göppingen district.
    By ordinance of the Stuttgart Regional Council dated July 15, 2004, the Kornberg and its southern foothills, Barn, were designated as the Kornberg nature reserve under number 1,262. The nature reserve covers an area of 189.8 hectares. The purpose is to protect

    the preservation and promotion of an ecologically diverse, small-structured and networked landscape with juniper heaths, succession areas, hedges, extensively used species-rich meadows, some fields and commercial meadows and near-natural deciduous forests with the typical, partly endangered animal and plant species;
    the preservation of a cultural landscape as a witness to partly historical forms of use, in particular the preservation of the juniper heaths and the extensively cultivated meadows;
    the preservation of a particularly varied, attractive section of the landscape that is typical of the Swabian Alb.
    The area contains the FFH habitat types 5130 (formations of Juniperus communis on calcareous heaths and grasslands), 6510 (lean lowland hay meadows), 9130 (woodruff beech forests) and 9150 (orchid beech forests).[5]
