Orridi d’Uriezzo

Orridi d’Uriezzo 2560 1707 Camping Conca d'Oro | Oasi di relax sul Lago Maggiore

From Camping Village Conca D’Oro, head north, straight to the Antigorio Valley!
Follow us! We’ll take you to the Orridi di Uriezzo!

What are the orridi? They are a geological masterpiece of rock chiselling, created over thousands of years by the waters of the Toce River in the Antigorio Valley.

The erosive work of glaciers and streams has left impressive and complex marks of which only rare evidence can be found throughout the Alps.

Walking inside these deep caves dug into the rock is like entering the ancient bed of a river: it helps you feel part of the natural history of the surrounding ecosystem and understand how important it is to respect, enhance and take care of it. The Orridi d’Uriezzo represent a unique and precious place in the Ossola valleys, so much so that they have earned the nickname of “Glacial Garden of Ossola“.

To feel like a bit of an adventurer and a bit of a caver, follow Camping Village Conca D’Oro with Natural Mind Professional on this magical adventure and don’t miss out on the next trips!

The “Walser“ of Salecchio

The “Walser“ of Salecchio 2560 1707 Camping Conca d'Oro | Oasi di relax sul Lago Maggiore

We wonder if you have ever heard of the Walser!
You have to know that in the high Ossola valleys from the 13th century onwards, a community of settlers from nearby Switzerland and more specifically from the Canton of Valais (hence the name Walser) began to inhabit certain localities in the Ossola valleys, more precisely in Macugnaga, Ornavasso, Salecchio, Agaro and Formazza.

If it is true that every place has a thousand stories to tell and discover, on today’s hike we will delve into the history of the Walser people of Salecchio.

If you want to join us on the trail of this ancient lost world, all you have to do is follow Camping Village Conca D’Oro and join Alessandro in discovering the Walser of Salecchio, the lost community.

Together with Natural Mind Professional, Camping Village Conca D’Oro lets you discover the treasures of the area! Join us!
