Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains
This camera looks out from the Faulhorn, a summit at about 2,685 metres above Grindelwald in the Bernese Oberland. It is useful for checking mountain visibility, cloud and snow before heading up. The live player is shown in HD and the page adds local time and the weather outlook for the area.
A high peak above the Jungfrau region
The Faulhorn sits on the ridge above Grindelwald, one of the best-known villages in the Swiss Alps. It is reached by a long hiking route or by a train and walking combination from the valley. The summit is famous for wide views across the Bernese Oberland, with the Eiger, Mönch and Wetterhorn range nearby. Conditions up here change quickly, so the air often looks clear in the valley while the peak is wrapped in cloud.
What to watch and when
Watch the camera in the morning, when clouds often lift off the peaks and the light is sharpest. Late afternoon can bring cloud build-up in summer, while winter views are typically crisp after fresh snowfall. Whether the summit and surrounding ridges are visible depends on the weather, so a glance at the live stream before setting out can save a wasted trip.
Practical notes and nearby views
The best hiking season runs from roughly June to October, when the trails are generally snow-free, though early snow can linger at height. Grindelwald is well served by trains and buses, and the village is a good base. Other cameras nearby include Grindelwald Gare routière, Grindelwald First and Brienz Windegg, which together give a broader picture of the valley and lake weather.
