Muscidae, or Anthom?
not a Tachinid.

Maybe a
Drymeia
. Most species are found at high altitude or latitude.

It must be
Drymeia hamata
, the only central European species of the genus with a long proboscis. Found in mountains up to 2,200 meters. I saw an American species of
Drymeia
at 4,300 meters.
