How do people live in Swiss Alpine villages? Autumn on the plateau | The last Swiss shepherds

Have you ever wondered how people live in Swiss Alpine villages?

In this in-depth and detailed video, we take you to a quiet mountain village, far from the hustle and bustle of cities, surrounded by green pastures and towering snow-capped mountains, where life flows to the rhythm of nature, not the clock. This video is not a tourist guide, but a truly human look at the lives of people living modestly and peacefully in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
High in the Swiss Alps, amidst stunning autumn meadows, a time-tested tradition begins each year. A traditional Swiss family leaves their valley homes in early autumn to spend months in a simple mountain hut surrounded by breathtaking nature.

The villagers live in traditional wooden houses dating back generations, decorated with warm, rustic touches—flower-filled porches, hand-carved woodwork, and vibrant kitchenettes. The day begins at dawn with milking the cows, feeding the animals, and collecting natural herbs from the mountains to dry and store for the winter—herbs used in cooking, drinks, and traditional medicines.
Here, people are connected to the land—building, planting, and tending their crops with their own hands, living in harmony with the changing seasons.

We accompany the locals through their daily lives among fields and pastures, where cows graze slowly amidst green meadows, and sheep run among wildflowers, in a natural landscape that is unlike anything else.

In the background, waterfalls cascade from the high mountains into clear lakes, while white snow covers the peaks in a captivating scene.

We learn about daily customs: gathering mountain herbs, caring for animals, walking ancient dirt paths, and communing with nature in profound silence and inner contentment.
These people, heirs of the mountains, do not live in luxury or chase modernity. Rather, they possess something deeper: a sense of belonging, tranquility, and balance with everything around them.
Watch this video to discover how people live when they are part of nature, not above it... a true, pure, and inspiring life in the heart of the Alps.
