The valley includes the Mesocco and Roveredo of the Moesa district, including:
The majority of the population adheres to Roman Catholicism, but there is a significant Protestant presence which is part of a Reformed community.[1] located in Grono and adhering to the Evangelical Reformed Church of the Canton of Grisons.[2]
