Obersaxen-Affeier

The landscape around Obersaxen-Affeier is a series of sunlit Alpine terraces above the Vorderrhein valley, which has shaped both its dispersed settlement pattern and its mountain-farming economy. This part of Grisons lies in the Surselva, where German-speaking Obersaxen stands within a largely Romansh cultural region. Its German tradition is linked to Walser settlers who established communities on these high slopes in the Middle Ages. In winter, the Obersaxen Mundaun ski area connects local slopes; in warmer months, paths and farm lanes lead through pastures and between small hamlets.
