Among Uri’s Alpine towns, Andermatt stands out for its position in the high Urseren valley, where the young Reuss runs between routes to the Gotthard, Furka and Oberalp passes. The settlement has long been shaped by trans-Alpine travel: the historic Gotthard route heads north through the Schöllenen Gorge, while the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn links Andermatt with Brig, Disentis and Göschenen. Ski slopes rise directly above the village, yet its defining character remains that of a mountain crossroads in central Switzerland.
