    Hiking

    Lago Scuro is a mountain lake in the Ticino municipality of Quinto. It lies at 2450 meters above sea level north of the Scurosee Pass (“Bassa del Lago Scuro”). On the other, southern side of the pass is the larger Lago Ritom. The Rein da Medel ("Medelser Rhein") flows out of Lago Scuro and flows into the Lai di Sontga Maria at the Lukmanier Pass. Scuro means dark in German. The mountain lake means "dark lake".
