"Dans nos villages de montagne valaisans, le bisse est le symbole de l'esprit d'initiative, d'énergie et d'endurance du peuple. Il est comme une épopée, un hymne héroïque chanté par ces générations de paysans rivés à leurs terres, suant et peinant pour leur arracher la subsistance de chaque jour"
Paul de Chastonay (Châtelain de Vercorin)

True monuments that have been part of the Valais landscape since the 14th century, the bisses are witnesses of a true epic of the economic and social life of the canton. Their construction was intended to irrigate the grasslands to obtain the fodder necessary for raising cattle. Vercorin also has its bisse along the forest towards Sigeroula and takes the water in the heart of Vallon de Réchy. This chalet is dedicated to this historical and very specific work in the canton of Valais.
