Model-based estimate (Open-Meteo weather data, CC BY 4.0; moon computed locally), not an official forecast. The sky may differ: check before you go up.

⚠️ Before you go up

Roads into the park can close after snow or ice, and the cable car stops in strong wind. This changes by the hour, so we do not show it here: check it at the source.
