Göscheneralp, Göschener Tal, Göschenen, Reusstal, Kanton Uri, Schweiz
The Göscheneralp was an alpine settlement in the municipality of Göschenen in the canton of Uri in Switzerland.
The hamlet of Gwuest also belonged to the high-altitude settlement.
Göscheneralp was about nine kilometers west of the valley village of Göschenen.
The Chelenalp connects to the Göscheneralp to the north-west.
The Voralptal is also nearby.
After the construction of the dam for the Göscheneralpsee, the alp was flooded and the residents moved to Gwuest.
The hamlet was at an altitude of 1715 m above sea level.
One of the highest permanent settlements in Switzerland, which gives it a special position with regard to the settlement history of the Alpine region.
Its special settlement-geographical importance is also in the vicinity of the Gotthard Pass, for which it was of existential importance as a producer of animal feed.
