    The Lago di Carassina is a reservoir in the Ticino Carassino Valley, a side valley of the Blenio Valley. It is located at an altitude of 1705 meters above sea level in the municipality of Blenio. The lake is fed by the surrounding mountain streams, such as the Tasin da Cumpiètt, while the Ri di Carassina flows out after the dam, the “Diga di Carassina”.
    The Carassina reservoir, also called Bacino di Carassino, is around 600m long
