This live camera looks out over the mountain village of Les Rasses, above the town of Sainte-Croix in the canton of Vaud, at about 1,566 metres. It is useful for judging whether the high Jura pastures and ridges are clear, snowy or hidden in cloud before you travel up the hill.
About Les Rasses
Sainte-Croix sits in the southern Swiss Jura, known for its music boxes and mechanical instruments, and Les Rasses is one of the higher villages above it. The area is a landscape of open pastures, farmhouses and forest edges, with the Lake of Neuchâtel and the Alps visible on clear days. Its quiet, airy character draws walkers and winter sports fans from the Vaud lowlands.
What the camera shows
As a mountain view, the picture is most rewarding in clear morning light, when the valley and distant ridges are sharp, and at sunset when the slopes take on warm colours. Depending on the view, you may see snow cover in winter, green meadows in summer, and cloud rolling in from the lowlands. Watching the sky and cloud base is often the best way to read the day's conditions here.
Practical notes
Winters are cold and snowy at this altitude, while summers are mild and comfortable for hiking. Spring and early autumn often bring the clearest views. Nearby cameras include Buttes - La Robella, about 4 km away, and Les Fourgs - Haute Joux, about 7 km away, which give further views across the Jura ridges.
