Gryon - Les Chaux
🇨🇭 Vaud · Switzerland — Altitude 1760 m
This camera looks out over the mountain terrain around Gryon, a village at roughly 1760 metres in the Vaud Alps. It suits anyone planning a day in the mountains who wants to check conditions before setting off. The live player shows the view as the owner streams it, with local time and weather updated alongside.
Gryon sits in the Ollon valley above Bex, reached by road and by rack railway from the valley floor. It belongs to the Villars and Diablerets ski and hiking area, where open pastures, larch woods and high limestone ridges define the landscape. The village is a quiet base for walkers and winter sports people who prefer smaller resorts to larger ones. Its atmosphere is that of a traditional Alpine community with chalets and church spires set against steep slopes.
The title refers to Les Chaux, an upland area above the village. Depending on the view, you may see grazing land, wooded slopes and the surrounding peaks. Mountain cameras like this one are most useful in the early morning, when cloud and visibility change quickly, and in late afternoon when the light falls across the ridges. In winter, the snow cover and the state of the piste area are the features most worth watching.
Summers are mild and often the best time for hiking, while winters bring reliable snow and cold, sometimes sharply so at this height. Spring and autumn can be unsettled, so check the forecast on this page before setting off. Villars-sur-Ollon and the Bretaye area are a short distance away, and the nearby Chaux Ronde camera gives a second view of the same mountain country.
