Yellowstone Webcams

Virtual Park

Yellowstone National Park currently has four webcams. If you can't come see Old Faithful erupt in person, you can view it online. Between eruptions, stop in at the Mammoth Hot Springs Webcams to see what's happening elsewhere in Yellowstone.

 

Our newest edition -- live, streaming video

Old Faithful Geyser Live! is the park's first video webcam. This full-motion, live-streaming webcam is operated remotely and allows visitors to view geysers and wildlife in real time.

Go to the Old Faithful Geyser Live! webcam page.

If you want to catch a live, uninterrupted view of the geyser in action, check here first for the next prediction before going to the Old Faithful Geyser Live! Webcam page. Learn more about Old Faithful.

 

New Mammoth Hot Springs Webcam
Images from this webcam update approximately every 30 seconds. It is our most popular camera for viewing wildlife in the Mammoth Hot Springs area. It is located in an office on the second floor of the Albright Visitor Center.

 

Original Mammoth Hot Springs Webcam
This is the first webcam to be installed in the park. Like its big brother above, it provides views of the parade ground outside of the Albright Visitor Center, with the terraces in the background. It's aimed so that people can wave to their family and friends back home.

 

Mount Washburn Webcam 
Located in the fire lookout on top of Mount Washburn, this webcam shows the Yellowstone Caldera, including views of Yellowstone Lake, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and Hayden Valley.
