Arolla — view over the resort

Arolla - Vue sur la station

🇨🇭 Valais · Switzerland — Altitude 2290 m

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDCity

This live camera looks over Arolla, a small alpine village at about 2,290 metres in the Val d'Hérens, Valais. It is useful for checking how the valley looks right now before planning a walk or drive up from Sion. The page also shows local time and the weather forecast for the village.

A village above the larch forests

Arolla sits at the head of the Val d'Hérens, surrounded by glaciers, larch woods and high rocky summits typical of the Swiss Alps. It is known as a base for hiking, mountaineering and cross-country trails, and as a quiet alternative to busier resorts in the canton. Its setting is defined by the mountains rising steeply on every side of the valley.

What to watch and when

The view is most useful for judging cloud and visibility over the peaks, which often change quickly in the afternoon. Mornings tend to be clearest, with cloud building over the summits later in the day in many seasons. Snow cover on the surrounding slopes changes the look of the valley a lot between winter and summer, so the camera is worth checking at different times of year.

Climate and getting there

Summers are mild and short at this altitude, and early winters bring reliable snow, while the shoulder seasons can be unsettled. Arolla is reached by road up the Val d'Hérens from Sion, a drive that takes most of an hour. Nearby cameras include Verbier on Mont Fort and Evolène village, both useful for comparing conditions in the wider region.
