A panoramic road that connects Tenero to Contra, a town that was once independent but then absorbed by the Municipality of Tenero in the modern era.

Verzasca Dam (Contra Dam)

Highlight • Monument

Coming from Contra, you have to carry the bike a few meters down the hiking trail. However, the climb on this side of the valley is much more pleasant as there is almost no traffic here

From Mergoscia you have probably the most comprehensive view of Lake Vogorno with the Verzasca dam.
