Arolla

Arolla has served as an alpine resort in Valais since the late 19th century. Set at the head of the Val d’Hérens at around 2,000 metres, it lies beneath the Arolla Glacier and the high peaks around Mont Collon. The Borgne de Ferpècle rises in this glaciated mountain country, while trails and mountaineering routes make Arolla an important stop on the classic Haute Route between Chamonix and Zermatt. Val d’Hérens is also known for Hérens cattle, celebrated locally for their traditional spring contests. Find related webcams in the surrounding Valais Alps to build a fuller picture of Arolla.
