🇨🇭 Valais · Switzerland — Altitude 1710 m
This live camera looks over the village of Grächen, a car-free mountain resort in the Swiss Alps of Valais. It is useful for checking snow and light conditions in the village before you travel or planning a walk around the centre. The live player, local time and weather are shown below the stream.
Grächen sits at about 1,710 metres on a sunny terrace above the Mattertal, facing the Saas and Mischabel peaks. The village is known for its alpine atmosphere, traditional wooden chalets and its role as a base for skiing, hiking and mountain biking in the Valais Alps. Its high position gives it wide views and a noticeably mild, sunny climate for the mountains.
The view is most rewarding in clear morning light, when peaks catch the first sun, and in late afternoon when shadows lengthen across the slopes. Winter brings snow to the rooftops and pistes, while summer shows green meadows and hikers on the trails. Cloud and fog can roll in quickly, so the view may change a lot within an hour depending on the weather.
Winter is the busy season for skiing, while June to September suits hiking and cable car trips. Spring and autumn are quieter and cheaper. Grächen is reached by road from Visp and Täsch, and the village is largely car-free. Nearby cameras cover Hannigalp, Furggen and Seetal, which can help you compare conditions at different heights.
