Some of the Walser, a people of the Upper Valais in Switzerland, went searching for fresh pastures for their cattle. On their quest for a new home, they came through the Val Formazza (Italy) into the Valle di Bosco, a little side valley of the Vallemaggia (Ticino) and founded the village of Gurin in 1253. The inhabitants have maintained most of their customs, and their language , a Swiss-German dialect that's still spoken alongside Italian and the local dialect. Bosco Gurin (1503 meters above sealevel) also stands out architecturally from the rest of the Ticino: it features a great deal of timber, which is rather atypical for this canton.
