Discovering Helvetia

Nestled in the mountains, Helvetia is a quaint little hamlet in Randolph County (2 hours from Reedsville). This isolated community settled by the Swiss and German immigrants from Brooklyn, New York in 1869. This authentic destination maintains it’s Swiss traditions, food and folkways.

We had the pleasure of dining at **The Hütte Restaurant,** a family-owned restaurant located in the heart of Helvetia.
