Cà di Janzo, Mountain village in Alagna Valsesia, Italy.

Cà di Janzo stands at 1,354 meters above sea level at the entrance of Val Vogna, featuring traditional Walser-style houses crossed by mountain streams.

The village name evolved from documented variations including Cadianzo in 1618 and Chasa di Janzo in 1639, deriving from the Jenz family estate.

The settlement maintains its Walser architectural heritage through preserved mountain houses that reflect the building techniques of Alpine settlers.

The village connects to multiple hiking trails, including the Alta Via dei Walser path and routes leading to Cima Mutta with views of Monte Rosa.

Queen Margherita of Savoy stayed at the local Alpine Pension, now known as Relais Regina, during her mountain visits in September 1898.
