SFSO statistics
Obergoms is the upper part of the Goms and a municipality in the district of Goms in the canton of Valais in Switzerland. It was formed on 1 January 2009 when the three municipalities Ulrichen, Obergesteln and Oberwald merged.[3]
History
Obergesteln is first mentioned in 1322 as castellione. In 1415 it was mentioned as obergestillen.[4] Oberwald is first mentioned in 1386 as Superiore Valde. In 1419 it was mentioned as Oberwaldt.[5] Ulrichen is first mentioned in 1235 as Vlrighingen. In 1240 it was mentioned as holriquinguen.[6]
The area around Ulrichen was the site of two battles during the Middle Ages. The First Battle of Ulrichen in 1211 was a decisive defeat of Bernese troops under Duke Berthold V of Zähringen by the army of the Canton of Valais under the Bishop of Sion Landrich von Mont. Many details about the battle are uncertain or questioned by historians.[6] The Second Battle of Ulrichen in 1419 was between the Old Swiss Confederacy led by Bern and Valais. The second battle was a Valais victory and negotiations after the battle led to the end of the Raron affair.

The municipality of Obergoms occupies the uppermost reaches of the valley of the Rhone, extending up to and including the Rhone glacier that feeds the river. It is surrounded on all but its downstream boundary by high mountains, and forms the junction of routes over the Grimsel, Furka, Nufenen and the Gries Passes, as well as the lower level route down the Rhone valley towards Brig. With the exception of the Gries Pass, which is traversed only by a track, all these passes carry paved roads. The Furka–Oberalp railway line also passes through the municipality, with its current route entering the western portal of the Furka Base Tunnel at Oberwald, whilst its earlier route, now preserved as a heritage railway, passes over the Furka Pass.[7]
The lowest settlement of Obergoms is Ulrichen, which lies in the Rhone valley at the foot of the Nufenen and Gries Passes. The route to both passes initially passes through the side valley of the Agene, and the municipality includes that valley, its surrounding slopes, the Griessee lake at its head, and the Gries glacier that feeds it. To the south of the lake and glacier, the municipality reaches as far as the border with Italy, a border crossed by the Greis Pass, whilst to the east it reaches the border with Bedretto in the canton of Ticino at the summit of the Nufenen Pass.[7]
The next settlement up the Rhone valley is Obergesteln, which is located on a terminal moraine of the Rhone glacier in the Rhone valley, at an elevation of 1,353 m (4,439 ft). Obergesteln is overlooked by the mountains of the Sidelhorn, to the north, and the Pizzo Gallina, to the south.[7]
Obergesteln is followed by Oberwald, at 1,370 m (4,490 ft) on the right (north) bank of the Rhone, and Unterwassern, on the opposite bank of the Rhone. Beyond Oberwald, the municipality continues up the valley of the Rhone to Gletsch, at 1,757 m (5,764 ft) and Belvedere, at 2,271 m (7,451 ft). From Gletsch, the Grimsel Pass climbs to the north, over the border into the canton of Bern. Belvedere overlooks the Rhone glacier, whilst the Furka Pass climbs on to the border with the canton of Uri.[7]
Obergoms has an area, as of 2011[update], of 155.8 square kilometers (60.2 sq mi). Of this area, 26.0% is used for agricultural purposes, while 9.6% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 1.0% is settled (buildings or roads) and 63.3% is unproductive land.[8]
