A place of meeting, learning and recreation
This centre promotes the landscape, natural resources and cultural heritage of Vallemaggia, particularly in the lower reaches of the valley. The Centre is a place of meeting, learning and recreation for schools, the local population and visitors from further afield.

The Centre seeks to encourage a form of development that considers man, environment and economy; to make good use of Vallemaggia’s natural resources and cultural heritage; to promote respect for the environment; to become an educational reference point for schools; and to promote nature research and economic activities.
