Übergossene Alm, Alpine glacier in Werfen, Austria.

The Übergossene Alm is the summit plateau of the Hochkönig (2,941 m) in the Berchtesgaden Alps, holding the remains of a crevasse-free plateau glacier between roughly 2,600 and 2,700 m. The snow surface slopes gently northward, with grey rock outcrops breaking through on the left and patches of rougher ice in the middle. The name is written across the snow.

The glacier was considerably larger in 1888 and covered a much greater area. Since then, it has continuously melted and shrunk substantially.

The glacier forms a natural watershed between springs flowing through Blühnbachtal and Werfen into Salzach River, and Urslau tributaries draining into Saalach River.

The plateau is reached on marked trails from the Arthurhaus hut, passing the Torsäule rock face; the summit of the Hochkönig stands at 2,941 m. The remaining ice lies between about 2,600 and 2,700 m and is crevasse-free, but snowfields and the steep southern Mandlwände demand sure footing and full equipment.

The name comes from a legend: herders on a lush alpine pasture grew arrogant, gilding their bulls' horns and bathing in milk, until they turned away a weary wanderer. The pasture, the tale says, lies beneath the ice today. In 2023 less than 0.2 km² of glacier ice remained, down from 5.5 km² in 1888.
