Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This camera looks out from the upper mountain station of the Krippenstein, above the village of Obertraun on the edge of Hallstatt-Dachstein. It is useful for seeing what the high Dachstein plateau looks like before you go up, since conditions at the top can differ a lot from the valley. The page also gives you local time and the forecast for the area.

About Obertraun and the Krippenstein

Obertraun sits on the shore of Lake Hallstatt in the Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria. Above it rises the Krippenstein, part of the Dachstein massif, a high limestone plateau known for its karst landscape, caves and sweeping views over the lakes below. The area is popular with hikers, climbers and winter sports fans, and the surrounding peaks give the valley a dramatic, quiet atmosphere that changes quickly with the light and the weather.

What the camera shows and when to watch

The camera is mounted at a mountain station, so the picture is most likely to show high alpine terrain, the surrounding summits and whatever cloud or fog is moving through. Depending on the view, you may see snow on the peaks in winter and spring, or clear sightlines in summer. Early mornings often bring the clearest air, while afternoon clouds can build quickly over the plateau in warmer months.

Practical notes and nearby cameras

The climate is alpine, with cold winters, snow at altitude and mild, changeable summers. Late spring and early autumn are good times for hiking when trails are open and crowds are smaller. Nearby on VizCams you can compare views from Schladming's Dachstein Hunerkogel station, about 8 km away, and the Gosau Dachstein West valley station, about 14 km away, to see how conditions vary across the massif.
