Summary:
Here the Maggia has cut a slot in the rock up to 20m deep and about 600m long. At low water level a bathing tour, it can become life-threatening at higher water level - especially by the siphons towards the exit. Above the canyon there is a water drainage, without which the canyon would not be passable. Many opportunities to practice rope techniques such as flying fox.
