The Hohenstaufen is 684 m above sea level. NHN high, the Swabian Alb upstream Zeugenberg near Göppingen. Its cone is visible from afar and is a striking element of the landscape silhouette around Göppingen. In addition to the Stuifen and the Rechberg, the Hohenstaufen is the westernmost of the closely spaced Drei Kaiserberge between the Remstal in the north and the Lauter and Filstal in the south.

The part of the name staufen corresponds to the old name Stauf for a pointed, conical mountain (derived from the West Germanic adjective * staupa- meaning "steep").
