If you want to immerse yourself in the Walser culture and community, Carcoforo is the right place. Here you can fully breathe that atmosphere. A picturesque village, a jewel of Val Sermenza.

Enchantingly quiet and lonely mountain village, of a beauty that is hard to match. It seems to lie in the picturesque basin between the steeply sloping forests and meadows that descend from the Egua and the Lampone. Opposite this, the ridge from Quarazolo to Egua delimits the horizon. In 1991, Carcoforo was designated "Ideal Village of Italy" by the magazine Airone
