View of Muttergotteskapelle on Ritzinger Feld

Highlight • Religious Site

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.

August 25, 2021,von Obergesteln nach Reckingen
We used the beautiful bike path again, this time to Reckingen. The oldest village in the valley was inhabited as early as 500 years before Christ. The village church has already been described in art guides as the most beautiful baroque building of the 18th century. The village has always cultivated the craftsmanship, bells from the Reckingen foundry hang in …

The tour started soon after Reckingen with a flat tire. However, this could be remedied in Geschinen. The cycle path mostly followed alongside the Rotten to Oberwald. Again and again impressive photos of the typical old Valais houses.
We once experienced the Obergoms in late summer. Simply impressive. Tomorrow we go from Reckingen down towards Fiesch
