The Buocher Höhe is a wooded region and hill range up to 519.6 m above sea level (NN), around the village of Buoch in the county of Rems-Murr-Kreis in the German state of Baden-Württemberg.

The Buocher Höhe is usually seen as the area on the southwestern edge of the forested upland of Berglen, which is sometimes viewed as an independent region.

To the northeast the ridge is bounded by the Buchenbach valley. At its northeastern edge, on the sides of the valley are the villages of Lehnenberg, Spechtshof and Reichenbach. To the east, at open field system of Roter Stich, the Buocher Höhe is linked to the Berglen region by the saddle (420 m above NN) between Hößlinswart in the north and Rohrbronn in the south.

To the south the ridge drops into the Rems valley towards Geradstetten and Grunbach, the so-called Remshalde (which gives its name to the super-municipality of Remshalden); on the hillside is the Gundelsbach stream and the Ziegenberg. In the woods there are the open field systems of Hohe Straße, Marschallhölzle, Brand, Glockenholz and Eichenwald. To the southwest are the settlements of Groß- and Kleinheppach with the Kleinheppacher Kopf hill. The Hanweiler Saddle (364 m above NN) separates the Buocher Höhe from the Korber Kopf and Hohreusch. Towards Winnenden the Buocher Höhe descends via the "Großer Roßberg" hill via the terrace of Breuningsweiler, "Haselstein", Kleinen Roßberg and Stöckach.

The agricultural parts of the Buocher Höhe include the clearances of the Remshalden village of Buoch, the terrace of Breuningsweiler and the scattered orchards of Lehnenberg, Spechtshof and Reichenbach.
