This live camera looks out from the car-free mountain village of Braunwald, perched above the Linthal valley in canton Glarus. It is a useful window onto Alpine conditions, with cloud, snow and light changing quickly over the peaks. Check it before a walk or drive up the valley.
About Braunwald
Braunwald sits at roughly 1,560 metres on a sunny terrace above the Linth valley in the canton of Glarus, eastern Switzerland. Cars are banned in the village, so visitors arrive by funicular from Linthal or by road to the lower station and then walk or take the cable car. The setting is open meadows, pine woods and steep faces of the Glarus Alps, with the old chalet architecture typical of the region.
What the camera shows
The title points to the Grotzenbüel area, a high viewpoint above the village, so the picture is most likely an open mountain panorama rather than village streets. Depending on the view, you may see alpine pastures, ridgelines and the changing light across the valley. Mornings often bring clear air, while afternoon clouds can build over the peaks. Winter snow and autumn colours tend to make the scene most striking.
Planning and nearby views
Summer is the main season for hiking, with trails branching from the village toward nearby ridges such as the Seblengrat. Winter brings snow sports and quiet slopes, though conditions can change at this altitude. Other cameras cover the Gumen, the Märchenhotel, the Hôtel Cristal and the Seblengrat, so you can compare conditions across the village. Check the live weather on this page before setting out.
