The webcam is installed directly at the house of the vacation apartments in Chalet Soldanella and offers a view to the south of the Valais Alps. In the upper third of the picture is the imposing Weisshorn, with the Brunegghorn to the right, which is often mistaken for the Matterhorn by vacationers. Further to the right is the "Schaufel" or double summit with the inner and outer Barrhorn. The village center of Grächen with its church can be seen in the middle. In the tallest building in Grächen, to the right, you will find the "Volg" grocery store. Other stores, restaurants and more are located in the immediate vicinity. The ideal location of your vacation apartment: close to the center, accessible by car and yet very quiet.

Weather and climate in Grächen

Grächen is located in the driest region of the entire Alpine region. The Bernese and Valais Alps form a natural barrier against disturbances from the Atlantic or the Mediterranean.

The numerous sunny days and the foehn increase the drying of the soil. Between 1960 and 1990, the average annual precipitation in Grächen was 52.3 cm, and 50 percent of all days were cloudless. Between 1901 and 1940, 56 cm were still measured, most of which fell as snow, since summer precipitation (May to August) was only 20 cm at that time. With average January temperatures of minus 4.2°C, average July temperatures of plus 13.8°C and an annual average temperature of plus 4.6°C, Grächen has an exceptionally mild climate in relation to its altitude.

Since 1861, a small weather station of the Swiss Federal Observatory has been located in Grächen, which measures the air pressure, temperature and humidity three times a day. Grächen thus had one of the first measuring stations in the Valais. Until recently, the mountain village was considered to have the lowest rainfall in all of Switzerland. However, recent studies have shown that the hamlet of Ackersand in the valley floor of the neighboring community of Stalden receives even less precipitation on an annual average.
