Ulrichen

Highlight • Settlement

With the Nufenen and Gries passes, Ulrichen is the gateway to the south. And Ulrichen is happy to welcome visitors who cycle. The Bike Hotel at the foot of the Nufenen Pass, for example, offers a bike washing and repair corner in addition to a charging station for e-bikes.

The Mother of God Chapel, which was first mentioned in 1592, can be found on the Ritzinger Feld, between the villages of Ritzingen and Gluringen. So it is visible from afar, the pilgrimage chapel, as a landmark of the Obergoms.

The wide gravel road meanders through the Goms. The route can now really be traveled from touring bike to mountain bike with every bike. Even with children who have not been cycling for long, the Rhone Route 1 can be done in both directions from Niederwald.
