Umhausen — Stuibenfall waterfall

Umhausen - Stuibenfall

🇦🇹 Tyrol · Austria

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This live camera looks at the Stuibenfall, one of the best-known waterfalls in the Ötztal valley near Umhausen in western Austria. It is a useful check on how much water is coming down the gorge and how the valley looks right now. Use it to plan a walk before you set out.

A waterfall in the Ötztal

Umhausen sits in the Ötztal, one of the long alpine valleys that run south from the Inn valley in Tyrol. The Stuibenfall drops through a rocky gorge fed by mountain streams, and the surrounding slopes are forested with pine and larch. The village is small and quiet, and the falls are the main reason walkers come up the side valley. The landscape changes noticeably with altitude, from farmland on the valley floor to steep meadows and rock above.

What the camera shows

The stream is at its fullest in late spring and early summer, when snowmelt from the high peaks is at its peak. In autumn the flow is usually gentler and the larch needles turn gold along the path. Because the valley is steep, the light on the falls changes quickly during the day, so mornings and late afternoons often look most dramatic. The view can be affected by cloud and mist in the gorge, so check the live picture rather than relying on expectations.

Climate and getting there

Summers in the Ötztal are mild and mostly dry, while winters are cold with plenty of snow in the surrounding mountains. June to September is the most practical season for walking to the falls, and the paths can be wet and slippery at any time of year. Nearby cameras in Niederthai and Längenfeld show other parts of the valley, including the Ötztal thermal spa at Längenfeld.
