Climate

A typical weather feature is the Föhn/Alpine foehn, which ensures periods of fine weather, which, in addition to sudden increases in temperature, is responsible for good visibility, but also for headaches in sensitive people. The average duration of snow cover between 1951/52 and 1995/96 was 92 days (long-term behavior of snow cover in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria, KLIWA, 2005). [4]

The current weather in Kiefersfelden is recorded at the Kiefersfelden-Gach weather station (part of the German Weather Service measuring network) at 518 m above sea level. [5]
