Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains
This live view comes from the mountain station of the Hochgrat cable car above Oberstaufen in the Allgäu Alps. It shows the high-altitude terrain and the weather at the upper station, which often differs sharply from the valley below. Watch it to judge visibility and snow or cloud before planning a walk or ride.
The Allgäu setting
Oberstaufen is a spa and holiday town in the Bavarian Allgäu, close to the Austrian border and the Lake Constance region. The Hochgrat, at roughly 1,800 metres, is one of the best-known peaks of the Allgäu Alps and is reached by a modern cable car. The surrounding meadows, forests and pastures are typical of the area, with dairy farms and alpine huts scattered across the slopes.
What the camera shows over the day
The image is most useful in clear morning hours, when cloud often lifts from the summit before afternoon build-up. Depending on the view, you may see the summit area, ski pistes or hiking paths and the valley beyond. Snow cover changes the scene completely between winter and summer, so the same view can look very different from one visit to the next.
Planning a trip up
The Allgäu has mild summers suited to hiking and cooler, snowy winters good for skiing. Late spring and early autumn can bring rapidly changing weather at altitude, so check the live conditions here alongside the forecast. Nearby cameras in the region include Gschwend, Imbergbahn, Fluhexpress and Hoch Haderich, which help you compare conditions across several slopes.
