 | Summer holiday trip 2007: Verzasca Dam, Ticino, Switzerland The Verzasca Dam is a 220 meter (722 feet) high arch hydroelectric dam in the Valle Verzasca (Verzasca Valley), Canton of Ticino, southern Italian speaking part of Switzerland. Amie and me came accross the dam during our first half of our summer trip in August 2007 in Switzerland, when entering the beautiful valley of Verzasca (Valle Verzasca) located in the Locarno district of the Canton of Ticino, Switzerland. The dam was constructed between 1960 and 1965 and forms the Vogorno lake (Lago di Vogorno), an artificial reservoir. Made of concrete, the structure dams the Verzasca River and retains over 100 million cubic meters of water. It is (as of 2007) the 25th tallest dam in the world. The dam gained a certain popularity as it was part of the opening scene of the 1995 James Bond film Goldeneye, in which James Bond jumps off the top of the dam in an attempt to gain access to the heavily guarded Russian chemical weapons factory below, reaching a speed of up to 120mph during his eight-second freefall down the studded concrete wall. Today, this is the biggest bungee jump in the world. |
