It covers the region of eleven rings around Oberwald, the central part of the mountain range, certain municipalities in the counties of Vogelsbergkreis, Wetteraukreis, Gießen and Main-Kinzig-Kreis. The park has an area of 883.36 km² and is thus roughly as large as the capital city of Berlin.
The park was designated in 1956 as the High Vogelsberg Protected Area with an area of 225 km² and renamed in 1957 to the High Vogelsberg Conservation Park . Between 1963 and 1969 it was expanded to 384.47 km², in 1967 it was renamed as the High Vogelsberg Nature Park. In 2004 it was enlarged by 883.36 km² to its present extent.
