The Mainhardt Forest is a hill range up to 586.4 m above sea level in the counties of Schwäbisch Hall and Heilbronn, Hohenlohekreis and Rems-Murr-Kreis in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. It is named after the municipality of Mainhardt that lies at its centre.
The highest point of the Mainhardt Forest is the Hohe Brach between the villages of Erlach and Grab in the municipality of Großerlach. Another hill in the range is the Steinknickle near Wüstenrot. Near Großerlach the treeless kuppe of the Altwald offers a view far across the Swabian-Franconian Forest. On the forested kuppe of the Flinsberg near Oberrot are mighty outcrops of flint blocks. In the southeast the Mainhardt Forest runs between the valleys of the Rot and Kocher in a ridge called the Kirgel , on which there is an observation tower, the Kerner Tower. On its eastern perimeter near Westheim the Steinbühl rises over the Kocher valley.
