According especially to older geographical and lexical works, the mountains of the Hinterer Forest ( the Arber, Rachel, Lusen and others) are already counted as part of the Bohemian Forest, so based on that definition the Einödriegel would be the highest peak in the Bavarian Forest. Even in 1982 the Brockhaus wrote in an article entitled Bayerischer Wald that: in a geographical sense the Bavarian Forest is that part of the Bohemian Forest that rises as the Vorderer Wald (Danube Hills) between the rivers Danube and Regen (at the Einödriegel to 1,121 m).
