The Obere Argen ("Upper Argen") is a river in southwestern Bavaria and southeastern Baden-Württemberg in Germany. Northwest of Oberstaufen in the Bavarian-Swabian county of Oberallgäu, the Seelesgraben, the Moosmühlbach and the Schwarzenbach streams converge forming the Obere Argen. From this confluence the river flows through the Eistobel, a gorge which is passable on foot within the eponymous nature reserve and past the Grünenbach heading for Wangen im Allgäu. Near Gestratz the Obere Argen collects the waters of the Röthenbach coming from the left and forms the Bavarian-Württemberg state border as far as Wangen. North of the Wangen district of Neuravensburg the Obere Argen unites with the Untere Argen ("Lower Argen") to form the Argen, which then discharges into Lake Constance between Kressbronn and Langenargen after about 23 kilometres.
