Freiburg — Schauinsland cable car mountain station

Freiburg - Bergstation Schauinslandbahn

🇩🇪 Baden-Württemberg · Germany

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This camera watches the upper station of the Schauinslandbahn, the cable car that climbs from the edge of Freiburg into the Black Forest. It is a handy way to see what conditions look like up on the ridge before you decide whether to head into the hills. The live feed sits above, with local time and weather below.

About the Schauinsland

The Schauinsland is one of the best-known hills of the Black Forest, rising just east of Freiburg im Breisgau in the state of Baden-Württemberg. Its wooded slopes, meadows and long views over the Rhine plain have made it a favourite destination for walkers and families for generations. The cable car has carried visitors up from the city for decades, so the station is a familiar meeting point for hikers heading out along the forest trails.

What the camera shows

Because the camera is set at the mountain station, its view depends on the weather more than on the time of day. On clear mornings the air is often sharp and the distant plain may be visible, while low cloud or mist can close in quickly on the higher ground. Watching the feed before setting off is a practical way to judge whether the ridge is clear or still hidden in cloud.

Visiting and nearby cameras

Freiburg has a mild climate for Germany, and the hills are pleasant from late spring through early autumn, with winter snow sometimes lying on the higher paths. The cable car runs from the city, and the surrounding Black Forest offers many walks of varying length. Nearby cameras on VizCams include Eichsel, Weil am Rhein at the Vitra Campus, and two hotels in Basel across the border.
