🇨🇭 Vaud · Switzerland — Altitude 1644 m
This live camera looks out over Château-d'Œx, a village in the Pays-d'Enhaut of the canton of Vaud at about 1,644 metres above sea level. It is a good way to check the mountain conditions and the sky above the valley before you travel. The live player, local time and weather are all shown on this page.
Château-d'Œx sits in a broad alpine valley between the Gruyère region and the Vaud Alps. It is best known as a hub for hot-air ballooning and for its wooden chalets with painted facades. The surrounding meadows, forests and peaks give the valley a quiet, open character, and the village is a traditional base for hiking and winter sports in the western Swiss Alps.
The camera is aimed at the La Braye area, so the view depends on the angle and conditions at the moment you connect. Mountain views change quickly with cloud and light, so mornings often bring clearer air and the first sun on the peaks. On days with good visibility you may see the valley floor, the hillsides and the surrounding ridges. Balloon flights, when they take place, are most common in calm early mornings, which is a good time to look in.
Château-d'Œx has a mountain climate with cool summers and snowy winters, and the summer months from June to September are generally the most comfortable for walking. Weather can change within an hour in the Alps, so check the forecast on this page before heading out. Nearby cameras on VizCams include the village view, Rougemont and Videmanette, and Les Mosses, which are useful for comparing conditions across the valley.
