A lake and its evocative history. To build the dam in the 1930s, the village of Morasco was submerged, and the residents were forced to abandon everything. The dam was inaugurated in 1940. It is connected to the lake and the Sabbone Dam by a pipeline that discharges water from a height of 2,500 meters into Lake Morasco.

Beautiful lake with its dam. The color of the water is spectacular.

A few minutes from the Maria Luisa refuge...not to be missed, on a road suitable for vehicles

You've conquered the Nufenen Pass (Passo della Novena) by the road sign at an altitude of 2,477 meters. The pass also marks the cantonal border between Valais and Ticino. The pass is one of the youngest mountain passes in Switzerland, having only been built in 1964 and opened five years later. As the highest pass located entirely within Switzerland, it offers a special attraction for road cyclists. However, the approach from both sides is challenging, steep and often windy. Both routes involve over 1,000 meters of elevation gain. Since it's located far from any major towns, chances are your legs will already be a bit tired by the time the climbs begin.
