San Vittore, the gateway to Mesolcina, is characterized by a heterogeneous topography between mountains and countryside, whose history is linked to an artistic and ecclesiastical past of considerable importance.
The grotti built on the mountain invite you to linger and are extremely attractive. The historic buildings in the town center are also definitely worth seeing.
