Beautiful Walser village in upper Valsesia directly connected to the largest settlement of Rimella only by a stone walkway, which can only be explored on foot.

The village of San Gottardo is a small village - included in the ecomuseum itineraries of the upper Mastallone valley - connected to the larger settlement of Rimella only by a stone walkway, which can only be traveled on foot. These paths and paths were built over the centuries by the descendants of the Walser civilization, a population of Alemannic origin, who settled in the area between 1100 and 1300.
