Kampenwand — cross summit, looking north over Lake Chiemsee

Kampenwand - Croix - vue vers le nord sur le Chiemsee

🇩🇪 Bavaria · Germany — Altitude 1520 m

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This live camera sits near the summit cross of the Kampenwand, a mountain in the Chiemgau Alps of Bavaria. It looks north across the lowlands toward Lake Chiemsee, the largest lake in Bavaria. Watch it to judge visibility and cloud cover before planning a walk or a cable car ride.

A summit above Lake Chiemsee

The Kampenwand rises to about 1,520 metres above the Chiemgau Alps south-east of Munich. Its ridge is a familiar landmark for the surrounding villages of Aschau and Sachrang. From the top, the land drops quickly to the north, where the broad, flat basin of Lake Chiemsee opens out. The lake is often called the Bavarian Sea, and its islands are a well-known sight from above on clear days.

What the view shows and when to watch

The title describes a view northward from the cross, so the camera is pointed toward the lake and the farmland between the mountains and the water. Mornings often bring the clearest air, while afternoon clouds can build over the peaks in summer. Autumn and winter frequently give crisp visibility when the valleys fill with haze or low cloud, and the lake can appear sharply outlined. Conditions depend on the weather at the time.

Practical notes for visiting

The Kampenwand is reached by the Kampenwandbahn cable car from Aschau, and walking routes lead up from the valley. Summer is the main hiking season, while winter brings skiing and snowshoe trails. Weather on the summit can change quickly, so bring warm layers even in July. Nearby cameras cover the Hochries ridge and the Gscheuerwand, which help you compare conditions across the range.
