An isolated steep-sided hill rising abruptly from a flat plain, like a rocky island in a sea of grass.
From German 'Insel' (island) + 'Berg' (mountain). Literally: island-mountain. Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Australia is the world's most famous inselberg.
An ISLAND MOUNTAIN! A big rock sticking up from flat land like the earth just... hiccupped! Uluru in Australia is one! The German name is perfect — it really does look like an island in a sea of grass! ðŸï¸ðŸª¨
