Oberstdorf: Bayern, Deutschland
Oberstdorf stands at the confluence of the Trettach, Stillach and Breitach in Bavaria’s Allgäu Alps, a position that has made it the region’s principal mountain resort and a meeting point for routes into the surrounding valleys. The three streams join here to form the Iller, while steep, forested slopes rise from meadows and scattered farmsteads toward the German-Austrian border. The Nebelhorn above Oberstdorf is one of the area’s best-known summits and is reached by cable car from the town. Winter sport is central to local identity: Oberstdorf regularly hosts international ski-jumping, cross-country skiing and ski-flying competitions, with the Heini-Klopfer ski-flying hill among its major venues. Traditional Allgäu houses and working pastureland remain part of the town’s character beyond the centre.

Oberstdorf lies in the Iller valley, where the Trettach, Stillach and Breitach meet beneath the Allgäu Alps. Germany’s southernmost municipality is a major base for mountain walking, winter sports and routes towards the Austrian border. The Nebelhorn rises above the resort; its summit reaches 2,224 metres and is served by a cable car from Oberstdorf. Ski jumping is central to local identity: the Schattenbergschanze hosts the opening competition of the Four Hills Tournament, while the town has staged the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships three times, most recently in 2021.

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
