The Verzasca dam is 220 metres high by 380 metres in length, and the fourth highest in Switzerland. The dam was built between 1960 and 1965. The dam is used to practise bungee jumping and is home to one of the world’s highest fixed installations. The site was used to film the jump scene in the James Bond film “GoldenEye” (1995). A small museum at the location illustrates the story and functioning of the site.
