During the winter period, the swimming pools in Tenero's Sports Centre are open to the general public for a limited number of hours each day. The general rule for most of the year, however, is that these pools can only be used by groups and serious sportspeople.
The new Locarno Lido opened at the end of Oktober 2009, a paradise for sports, fun and well-being open throughout the year, with its indoor and outdoor swimming pools, the Olympic size swimming pool, the thermal pool, the play pool, the 4 fantastic chutes.
