THE TOWN OF RIMASCO <\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Was founded in 1479 when it broke away from the parish of Boccioleto. This small village lies on the shores of an artificial lake created following the construction of a dam downstream of the village in 1925 in order to increase electricity production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rimasco is well known as a holiday resort and for the traditional Miaccia<\/mark><\/strong> Fair held every year on 16 August. Near the hamlet of Dorca you can admire some typical Walser<\/strong><\/a> dwellings confirming the presence of settlers in these areas from 1300 onwards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The parish church of St. James<\/mark><\/strong> has ancient origins but was remodelled several times until 1688, when it acquired its present appearance. Many Baroque wooden works and frescoes are preserved inside.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

SPORTS IN RIMASCO <\/strong><\/mark><\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Various sports activities can be practised around Rimasco. In summer, the rich network of footpaths surrounding the village offers numerous hiking opportunities for trekkers. To enjoy a beautiful view of the village of Rimasco, we recommend reaching the Vall\u00e8 Piat alpine pasture by following Trail 363.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A summer alternative for everyone is the adrenaline-fuelled fun bobsleigh <\/strong>on rails in the redeveloped former Rimasco ski resort. The track is 1.8 km long with a difference in altitude of 220 m. It is ideal for a fun-filled day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In winter, the peaks that embrace the village lend themselves to snowshoeing and ski mountaineering excursions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
