This live camera looks out over Zermatt, the car-free alpine village in the Valais canton of Switzerland, at an altitude of about 1,620 metres. It is a practical way to check whether the Matterhorn is visible before you set out. The page also shows current conditions and a forecast for the valley.
About Zermatt
Zermatt sits at the foot of the Matterhorn, one of the most recognisable mountains in the Alps. Motor traffic is banned in the village centre, so visitors move on foot, by bicycle or in small electric taxis. The valley is known for glaciers, larch forests and a strong tradition of mountain guiding, and the atmosphere is quiet and outdoors-focused.
What the camera shows
The view is aimed at the village and its surroundings, so the mountain backdrop and the sky above it are the main things to watch. Clear mornings often give the sharpest outlines of the peaks, while afternoon cloud can build quickly over the ridges. Winter brings snow to the rooftops, and summer shows the greenest slopes, so the most interesting time depends on the season you prefer.
Planning a visit
Zermatt is reached by rail from Täsch, where cars are left in a large car park. The climate is alpine, with cold winters that suit skiing and mild summers that suit hiking. Nearby cameras on this site cover the Matterhorn, Sunnegga, Hotel Schönegg and the Riffelalp area, which help you judge conditions higher up the mountain.
Mountain weather
Conditions in the high Alps can change within an hour, so checking the live view alongside the forecast is useful before any walk or ride. Visibility is the key factor for mountain views.
