Viganella is a frazione of Borgomezzavalle, a comune of the Valle Antrona in the Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, the Italian region Piedmont. It is located about northeast of Turin and about northwest of Verbania. It was a separate comune until 2016, when it was merged with Seppiana into the municipality of Borgomezzavalle.
== Etymology == One hypothesis traces the name Viganella back to vignanella ("small vineyard"), but other studies derive it from vicana with reference to the common lands (of the "vicinia") of the rural settlements of the medieval times.
