thumb|The Joglland near Fischbach (Styria)|Fischbach The Joglland is a heavily forested low mountain region in the Hartberg-Fürstenfeld and Weiz districts of northeastern Styria, Austria. Today it forms the tourist region of Joglland–Waldheimat (Kraftspendedörfer Joglland).
Its name is probably derived from Jakob (perhaps from the village of Sankt Jakob im Walde) which, in this region is often corrupted to Joggl or Jackl. The region is described in the literature by the Styrian poet, Peter Rosegger, who grew up as a farmer's son in Alpl.
