Belalp — Aletsch ridge

Belalp - Aletschbord

🇨🇭 Valais · Switzerland — Altitude 2160 m

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDMountains

This camera looks out from the Belalp plateau toward the edge of the Aletsch area, one of the most recognisable mountain landscapes in the Swiss Alps. Watch the live stream to judge conditions on the ridge before planning a walk or a day up from the valley.

A balcony above the Rhone valley

Belalp sits on a sunny terrace at roughly 2160 metres above the Rhone valley in the canton of Valais. The area is known for its glaciers, high pastures and the broad view across the Aletsch region, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch. The landscape changes quickly with altitude, from larch and pine woods to bare rock and ice.

What to watch and when

The stream shows the mountain side and the sky above it, so it is most useful for checking cloud cover, visibility and snow. Mornings often bring the clearest air before clouds build over the peaks in summer afternoons. In winter, watch for fresh snowfall and the light on the slopes, which tends to be strongest in the early hours and late afternoon.

Planning a visit

The Belalp area is reached by a cable car and road from the Brig region, and the hiking network links it with neighbouring villages on the Aletsch side. Summer is the usual season for walking, while winter brings snow sports. Mountain weather can change within an hour, so check the live forecast on this page before setting out.
