This live camera looks at the summer toboggan run in Pottenstein, a small town in Upper Franconia. It is a quick way to check whether the slopes are busy and what the weather is doing before you head out into the hills.
About Pottenstein
Pottenstein sits in the Fränkische Schweiz, the Franconian Switzerland region of Bavaria, known for its limestone cliffs, dry valleys and caves. The town is set along the Püttlach valley, and the surrounding rock formations and forests give the area a distinctly rugged character compared with the flatter land nearby. Many visitors come for hiking, climbing and the traditional inns of the villages around it.
What you can watch
The camera follows the toboggan track, so the picture is mainly about the descent and the slope itself. Activity tends to be highest on warm afternoons and at weekends in the summer months, while early mornings are usually quiet. Depending on the view, changing light and cloud can make the wooded hillside look very different from one hour to the next.
Practical information
Summers in this part of Bavaria are mild, with warm days and occasional thunderstorms, and spring and early autumn are pleasant for walking. Pottenstein is best reached by car, and the Bayreuth area lies about 21 km away, a useful base for public transport. Nearby cameras on VizCams include Mehlmeisel Klausenlift and the Ochsenkopf views on the Fichtelberg.
