Alpe Vova is a small village of Walser origin, located on the plateau below Monte Giove, at about 1600 meters above sea level. It is located in the Antigorio Valley; it can be easily reached in the summer, when it is also a destination for numerous excursions. While in winter, it is inaccessible if not equipped with snowshoes due to the amount of snow on the ground. The village, consisting mainly of stables and barns, also has some newly renovated huts. The architecture is in the Walser style, as the buildings date back to the 18th and 19th centuries.
