Obergoms Region - Tradition

Highlight • Settlement

Hardly anyone thinks of the hotel name Ritz because its founder was a simple mountain farmer son from the Obergoms. Follow in the footsteps of Caesar Ritz, king of hoteliers and hotelier of kings.

Gletsch

Highlight • Settlement

Gletsch exudes a particularly nostalgic charm with its imposing buildings, which are long past their prime. The settlement consists roughly of the Hotel Glacier du Rhône, a train station, a former gas station, and an Anglican chapel. The hotel experienced its heyday in the later Belle Époque era, when it offered 320 guest beds.

Gletsch lies at an altitude of 1,759 meters at the junction of the mountain roads to the Furka and Grimsel passes, making it an important transit station for Alpine traffic and a horse-changing station.

Furka Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Furkapasshöhe is at 2,436 meters and is a popular destination for hikers, cyclists and drivers. Not far is the Hotel Furkablick, which has seen its prime, is slowly decaying and yet remains a charming photo motif. There is currently a bus stop there.

Hotel Grimsel Passhöhe

Highlight • Rest Area

The Hotel Grimsel Passhöhe convinces with a beautiful ambience, with fine, regional specialties and stylishly furnished rooms. A stay is worthwhile because of the hospitality, the fine food, because of the beautiful morning buffet but also because of the silence at night and the great view of the lake and the surrounding mountains-

Grimsel Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Those who are up here, it's best to also do a circular tour around the Totensee and enjoy the wonderful reflections on the water surface.
