Oberhausalm, Mountain pasture in Sankt Jakob in Defereggen, Austria.

Oberhausalm is a mountain pasture at 1,793 meters elevation in East Tyrol, surrounded by meadows and rocky slopes within the Hohe Tauern National Park. The site features open grassland with views across surrounding peaks and several alpine buildings.

The Oberhausalm belonged, like the Patscher Alm and the two Seebachalmen, to the Haller Damenstift-Fonds and was worked by East Tyrolean farmers, while the pastures further north were held by South Tyrolean farmers. In 1789 the four alms were auctioned; most of the Oberhausalm went to 33 buyers from Oberdrum for 3,178 florins with grazing rights for 380 cattle, on condition that they tolerate up to 200 cattle from other municipalities. The Oberdrum cattle were driven up the Felbertauern road until 1963, resting at Erlsbach.

The Oberhausalm was auctioned in 1789 to 33 buyers from Oberdrum, who paid 3178 Florint for grazing rights for 380 cattle and had to tolerate up to 200 cattle from other municipalities. Herders also used the woodland pasture of the Oberhauser Zirbenwald. Until 1963 the cattle were driven up the Felbertauern and Defereggental roads, resting in Erlsbach.

Public roads lead to this site from Erlsbach with parking available at the Alpengasthof Oberhaus starting point. The area is accessible on foot with clear marked paths and good directional signage throughout.

A hiking trail connects this site to Jagdhausalm at higher elevation and continues to Klammljoch further up. This path crossing multiple pasture levels offers changing views of the alpine valley below.
