We did part 3 (and the last 4 rappels of part 2). We could not find a true path to the start, kept around 1650-1700 through the bushes. All anchors solid but many rusty. All double. We did the C50 with a handline and then in 2 parts, all right side. Also very rusty anchor visible left. Good chained relais 15-20 meters from the bottom. Still some snow next to the C50! Bolts of the last rappel are very high up left (best approached on rope). Significant flow, but nowhere too serious. No pools with hazardous water movements. Took the path left to finish the day with Artigue.

Leider komplett trocken und abgestandene stinkende Gumpen die man durchqueren muss. Stellenweise sehr eng. Ohne wasser nicht empfehlenswert. Ambiente ist sicherlich ganz schön wenn es nicht stinkt.

Unfortunately, there are completely dry, stagnant, and smelly pools that you have to wade through. It’s very narrow in places. Not recommended without water. The atmosphere is certainly quite nice when it doesn’t stink.

Wasserdurchsatz gering, an der Brücke unterhalb des Ausstiegs ist der Bach trocken. In diesem Zustand ist das ein Waldgraben für "Sammler". Hinzu kommt eine optische Verunreinigung schon kurz nach dem Einstieg. Wir haben eine Umsetzung gemacht und sind nach unten ausgestiegen.

Water flow is low; the stream is dry at the bridge below the exit. In this condition, it’s just a forest canyon for “collectors.” On top of that, there’s visual pollution shortly after the entry. We changed our route and exited downstream.

Wunderschön aber viel zu kurz. Viele geführte Touren. Hätten danach gerne noch den Reposoir gemacht, leider kam ein Gewitter dazwischen.

Beautiful, but way too short. Lots of guided tours. We would have liked to do the Reposoir afterward, but unfortunately a thunderstorm got in the way.

Gemütliche Runde bei Regenwetter ;-)

A cozy get-together on a rainy day ;-)

Via ferrata followed by a difficult hike (navigation skills required) that takes you away from the canyon and then traverses back at entrance level. The canyon gave me the shivers because of all the dead wood, but it is bolted so that you can avoid the worst parts. Some new ropes + quicklinks for the first and final abseils would be good. In between anchors are mainly 2*10mm bolts but not the best placements! All quicklinks were open!! Mix of steel, use of non-redundant ropes.... But it does the trick. Would we repeat? Probably not. It would need a good clean-up.

Kurze Schlucht im Wald. Dunkles Gestein, deswegen schwer abschätzbar ob sich im Wasser Steine verbergen oder nicht. Alle Stände ok

A short canyon in the forest. The rock is dark, so it's hard to tell whether there are rocks hidden in the water or not. All conditions are fine.

Sind um ca. 11:00 eingestiegen und erst ganz am Schluss auf geführte Gruppen getroffen. Hatten den Canyon für uns alleine. Top Bedingungen und wirklich schöne Tour. Ausstieg nach Alquezar (ca. 40min). Das Auto hab ich dann im trockenen Wanderoutfit geholt (ca 2h von Alquezar)

We started around 11:00 a.m. and didn’t run into any guided groups until the very end. We had the canyon all to ourselves. Great conditions and a really beautiful hike. We exited at Alquezar (about 40 minutes). I then picked up the car wearing dry hiking clothes (about 2 hours from Alquezar).

Alles tip top. Mega Spaßfaktor. Heute als 5 Bach gemacht…
