This live camera looks out from Mont-Soleil, a ridge crest in the Bernese Jura of western Switzerland at about 1,288 metres. It is a useful window onto open high-country weather, changing light over the Jura and the Alpine horizon on clear days. Check the live player below before you plan a walk or drive up.
About the Mont-Soleil ridge
Mont-Soleil sits on the long Jura chain above the Val de Ruz and the Franches-Montagnes, a plateau of pastures, farmhouses and forest. The area is known for its open landscape and the solar installation that gives the ridge its name, and it is a popular base for hikers and cross-country skiers. The terrain is gentle but exposed, so the wind and cloud can change quickly.
What to watch and when
The camera is most rewarding in the early morning, when the light is low and the valleys below may hold a layer of mist, and in the late afternoon when the slopes warm in colour. In winter, snow often transforms the ridge and the view can be crisp after a cold front has passed. Because the scene depends on weather and visibility, conditions can vary a lot from one hour to the next.
Climate and getting around
The Jura summits are cooler and windier than the lowlands, with cold winters and mild, changeable summers. Late spring and early autumn often bring the clearest air for distant views. Nearby webcams include Nods at the Chasseral hotel, Les Bois golf club, Saignelégier village and La Chaux-de-Fonds, which help you compare conditions across the region.
