Su e giù per Rimella

A journey of flavors and traditions in the heart of Walser culture

Up and down Rimella

There is something magical in the summer air that envelops our Alps. The pastures take on a bright green hue, the clear sky feels within reach, and the small mountain villages awaken to a buzz of voices, encounters, and traditions coming back to life.

For us at Walser House, summer is never just a season, but an invitation to reconnect with our roots and celebrate them together with those, like you, who love the purest and sincerest soul of the mountains. It is with this spirit of warm sharing that we invite you to mark your calendars for an unmissable event: the fifth edition of the Gastronomic Tour "Up and Down Rimella" (or, in our ancient language, 'Uf und ab z Remmalju').

The event, organized by the Pro Loco of Rimella, will take place on Sunday, August 9, 2026. This year, the initiative takes on an even deeper meaning, being dedicated as a Memorial to the dear "Daniela Dealberto," thus uniting celebration and remembrance in a community embrace.

A dive into landscape, memory, and good food

Imagine strolling through the picturesque alleys of Rimella, breathing in the crisp, clean air. This event is not just a simple culinary fair, but a true narrative journey. Each dish tasted and every hut encountered along the enchanting path will tell you the story of one of the oldest, most resilient, and distinctive alpine communities in Piedmont.

The initiative will guide you on a step-by-step journey where local gastronomy becomes a vehicle for culture. You will have the opportunity to savor typical specialties: recipes passed down from generation to generation that smell of home, mountain cheese, and butter made the old-fashioned way. It will be a special occasion to rediscover ancient customs in an atmosphere where historical memory meets the wonderful conviviality of the present.

The Value of the Walser Community

"Participating in 'Up and Down for Rimella' means actively supporting the territory and those who, with dedication and infinite passion, keep it alive. It is the triumph of our Walser philosophy: the ability to live in deep harmony with nature, enhancing local resources and always welcoming the guest as part of the family."
