This live camera looks out over Grimentz, a mountain village at about 1,638 metres in the Valais canton of Switzerland. It is useful for checking conditions in the Val d'Anniviers before you travel or simply for a glimpse of alpine life. The page also shows local time and the current weather with a three-day outlook.
About the village
Grimentz sits in the Val d'Anniviers, one of the valleys that run up from the Rhône into the high Alps of southern Switzerland. The village is known for its traditional wooden chalets, narrow lanes and church, and for its role as a base for skiing and hiking in the surrounding mountains. The landscape is shaped by pine forests, pastures and rocky peaks, and the atmosphere is quiet and rural outside the busy winter season.
What to watch on the camera
Depending on the view, you may see rooftops, the surrounding slopes and the mountain light as it changes through the day. Early morning and late afternoon are often the most interesting, when the low sun picks out the peaks and the chalet roofs. Snow cover in winter and the green of the meadows in summer will change the scene noticeably, so check the page at different times of year to compare.
Practical information
Grimentz has a continental alpine climate with cold snowy winters and mild summers, and conditions at this altitude can change quickly. Summer is generally best for walking and the winter months for skiing. Nearby cameras on this site include Saint-Luc, about 7 km away, and several Zermatt views further east, which can help you compare conditions across the region.
Other cameras nearby
The Valais has many mountain cameras, and several are close enough to compare with this one. Saint-Luc lies a short distance away, while the Matterhorn views in Zermatt and the Riffelalp view give a sense of the higher peaks farther along the valleys. Checking a few of them can help you judge weather and snow before heading out.
