Tüllingen (Alemannic: Düllige) is a district of Lörrach, Baden-Württemberg, Germany It is located on Tüllinger Mountain, which is also known as Tüllinger Hill or just the Tüllinger. Upper and Lower Tüllingen were merged into the Tüllingen district in 1935.
Tüllingen is a small village in the southwestern region of Germany in Baden-Württemberg. Its coordinates are: Latitude 47°36'07.6"N (47.6021100°), Longitude 7°38'39.3"E (7.6442500°). The Tüllinger Mountain (in Switzerland called Tüllinger Hill) is of geological importance, elevated above the southern part of the city to a height of 460.2 m above sea level (NHN) . It offers a view of the tri-border area as well as the so-called "Rhine-Knee" and surrounding cities like Lörrach, Weil am Rhein and Basel
Today, large areas of the Tüllinger have been declared a special area of conservation in order to preserve a space for local recreation. Subsequently, the mountain has been designated as a protected area by the Habitats Directive. Due to the region's mild climate, the southwestern slope of the mountain is optimal for growing grapes, which are popular for regional products such as Markgräfler Wine. As well, the exposed position of the mountain allows many weather stations to measure data for the weather forecasting. A small part of the Tüllinger above the former public swimming pool in Riehen, Im Schlipf, is in Swiss territory.
In the south, Tüllingen shares a border with another village nameded Riehen, which is located on the Swiss border. The district of Stetten is located southeast of Tüllingen. Further north is the center of Lörrach. North of Tüllingen lies Tumringen, as well as Ötlingen and Haltingen, which are districts of Weil am Rhein. Situated to the southwest of Tüllingen is Alt-Weil (Old-Weil), which is located on the hillside.
