This live camera gives a view over Zurich, the largest city in Switzerland, set on the northern tip of Lake Zurich. It is useful for checking how the city looks right now before a visit or simply for a glimpse of Swiss city life.
About the city
Zurich lies at the point where the Limmat river flows out of Lake Zurich, with the Alps visible to the south on clear days. It is known as Switzerland's financial centre, but its old town, lakeside promenades and many churches give it a relaxed, historic character. Altitude here is around 420 metres, so the city sits comfortably above the lowlands while still close to the lake.
What to watch on the camera
The stream shows the city as it is at the moment of viewing, so the picture changes with daylight and weather. Mornings and late afternoons often bring the clearest light, and clear winter days can reveal snow on distant peaks. Rain or low cloud may hide the skyline, which is worth knowing before you plan a longer watch.
Practical information
Zurich has a temperate climate with warm summers and cold, often grey winters. Late spring and early autumn are popular for walks along the lake and the river. Within the region you can also look at the nearby cameras on this site, including the view from the Zürich SRF building and the Rhine Falls area at Neuhausen.
