Alagna Valsesia

The landscape around Alagna Valsesia is a steep Alpine valley beneath the Monte Rosa massif, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. Set in upper Valsesia beside the Sesia River, the village is one of Italy’s best-known centres of Walser heritage, reflected in timber-and-stone houses and the Walser Museum in nearby Pedemonte. This German-speaking mountain community left a lasting mark on local architecture and traditions. Alagna is also a principal access point to the Monterosa Ski area, while summer brings walkers into the high mountain terrain.
