This 220 metre high Dam, also known as the Contra Dam, is the fourth highest in Switzerland, and forms the Lago di Vorgorno before flowing into Lago Maggiore at Locarno.
It became famous in the film Golden Eye when 007 James Bond made his 7.5 second bungy jump.
The world's highest stationery bungee jumping station can just be seen in the middle of the dam wall.
