Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains
This live view looks across the Hintereisferner, one of the largest glaciers in the Ötztal Alps, toward the summits of the Weißkugel and the Langtaufererspitze. It is a useful window onto high-alpine conditions, with snow, ice and cloud moving over the peaks throughout the day.
A glacier in the Ötztal Alps
The Hintereisferner lies in the Ötztal Alps on the border region of South Tyrol and the Austrian state of Tyrol, at an altitude of about 3245 metres. It is one of the best-known glaciers in the eastern Alps and has long been studied for its retreat over the past decades. The surrounding landscape is stark and glaciated, with rock, moraine and snowfields rising toward high summits.
What the view shows over the day
Depending on the view, you may see sunlight moving across the snow faces in the morning and clouds building over the ridges in the afternoon, which is common in high mountains. Clear mornings tend to give the sharpest views of the peaks. Snowfall and fog can hide the summits for long periods, so the camera is best checked at several moments of the day when you want to judge conditions.
Climate and getting there
Conditions at this altitude are cold year-round, and the summer months are generally the most accessible for visitors, though snow can fall at any time. Access to the glacier area is by mountain paths and cable transport from the valleys, and conditions change quickly. Nearby cameras on the Schnalstal side include the Schnalstaler Gletscherbahn and Schnals - Grawand, which give additional views of the area.
