This live camera looks out over the EPFL campus on the hills above Lausanne, on the north shore of Lake Geneva. It is useful for checking how the weather and light look over the city before a visit or a trip across the lake. The picture updates through the embedded player supplied by the source.

About the place

EPFL, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, sits on a slope above the city centre and the lakeshore. Lausanne is the capital of the canton of Vaud and is known for its steep old town, its university life and its views across Lake Geneva towards the French Alps. The campus itself is a large, modern complex set among open grounds and paths.

What you can watch

Because the camera is aimed at a university campus, the most typical activity is the daily rhythm of students and staff moving between buildings, which is busiest during the weekday morning and early afternoon. Clear mornings tend to give the sharpest view over the water, while on cloudy or misty days the lake may be hidden. Sunrise and late afternoon are often the most attractive hours for light, depending on the view.

Climate and getting there

Lausanne has a temperate climate with warm summers and mild, often wet winters. Spring and early autumn are pleasant for walking on the campus and along the lakefront. The campus is reached by metro and bus from the city centre, and the nearby cameras on this site cover the lakeside quay, the port at Morges, the Bessières bridge and the village of Lutry.
