This live camera looks out over Disentis, a village in the upper Rhine valley of the Swiss canton of Graubünden at about 1,200 metres above sea level. Watch it to get a quick sense of conditions in the Surselva before you travel or to follow the mountain weather as it changes through the day.
The village and its setting
Disentis lies where the Rhine is still a young mountain river, in the Surselva, the upper part of the Vorderrhein valley. The village is known for its Benedictine monastery, founded in the eighth century, which still shapes its centre. Surrounding slopes rise quickly into forested hillsides and high alpine pastures, and the valley floor is often framed by the peaks of the Swiss Alps. The atmosphere is quiet, rural and very Romansh in character, with the language widely heard alongside German.
What to watch and when
The view is most worth following in the morning, when valley mist often lifts from the river and the slopes catch first light, and in the late afternoon when shadows lengthen across the mountainside. Cloud build-up over the peaks is typical on summer afternoons, so the sky can change quickly. Depending on the view, you may see the village rooftops, the surrounding forest and the mountain ridges. The time shown on the page helps you judge whether it is daylight in the valley.
Climate and getting around
Disentis has a mountain climate with cool summers and cold, snowy winters, and it is a base for both winter sports and summer hiking. Late June to September is usually the most reliable period for walking, while winter suits skiing in the wider Surselva area. Nearby cameras cover Breil/Brigels, Obersaxen Mundaun and Surcuolm, giving more views of the region from different heights and angles.
