Realp is situated at 1,538 m above sea level at the foot of the Furka Pass in the high valley of Urseren. This area belongs to the canton of Uri. Known as the starting point of the Furka-Bahn mountain railway, Realp combines railway nostalgia with alpine authenticity. Once highly prone to avalanches, the village now features avalanche-resistant architecture with a striking protective wall and a geometric layout. Surrounded by pristine alpine landscapes, you can find hiking trails and a 9-hole golf course in summer. You can also explore the Furka, Gotthard, and Oberalp passes. In winter, a family-friendly ski lift invites you to enjoy the slopes.
