Excursions 
The magical jade green waters of the Verzasca river flow peacefully
over smooth polished rocks, passing under the picturesque double arches
of the Ponte dei Salti in Lavertezzo. Follow the river down the valley
and you will find wonderful worn rock shapes and natural jacuzzis, and
the trail to Brione is home to 34 works of art. Don't resist it - jump
in! You will be hard pressed to find a more romantically beautiful
place to do so. Are you looking for the ultimate adrenalin rush? Then
look no further! The Verzasca dam on the Lago di Vogorno at the
entrance to the valley is where James Bond once jumped 220m attached to
no more than a rubber rope. For once, copying can be recommended! The "007 Bungee Jump"- lasts exactly 71/2 seconds -
take longer to enjoy your well-earned dip in Lake Maggiore.
Cool green water.
