The Scheffelsberg (Czech: Korec) is a forested mountain south of Jugel in the western Saxon Ore Mountains, which is 980 metres high. The Czech-German border runs over its summit.

In winter, a cross-country skiing trail runs from Henneberg via the Scheffelsberg towards the border. In clear visibility there is a good view of the Saxon-Bohemian upper Ore Mountains from the nearby peak of Buchschachtelberg through the trees.
