Alagna Valsesia
Alagna Valsesia is a comune and small village high in the Valsesia alpine valley in the province of Vercelli, Piedmont, Italy, a UNESCO World heritage site since 2013. It is a tourist place for mountaineering and winter sports, and it is internationally renowned for the freeride off-piste skiing. It was originally settled by Walser at the beginning of 12th century. It is located at an elevation of 1191m just south of the Monte Rosa, elevation 4638m ; It is very close to Milan and to the international Milan–Malpensa Airport .Since December 2005 a cable car connects Alagna with Gressoney through the Passo dei Salati.HistoryFounded in the 13th century by a German population descending from the north into the Italian valleys around Monte Rosa, it has preserved today its atmosphere with several buildings built around 1500 - 1600 in a pure "Walser Style", still in perfect condition, built using local wood and stones . This spontaneous architecture has been totally preserved: the wooden cage around the building was in fact invented for putting the hay to dry out.Plan the details of your Alagna Valsesia holiday and any onward adventuring with our easy-to-use Italy trip builder tool.
