Swiss Lakes and Reservoirs

Ticino’s landscape is defined by its diverse water bodies, ranging from the glacial Lake Lugano on the Italian border to high-altitude reservoirs like Lago di Luzzone. Many of these lakes, such as Lago Ritom and Lago di Lucendro, serve as vital energy sources for the Swiss Federal Railways. Situated near mountain passes like St. Gotthard and Lukmanier, these alpine waters offer unique geological features and varied surface areas, reflecting the region's complex hydraulic engineering and natural glacial history.
