Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Caffaro A nice discovery. Esthetically pleasing: deep and narrow parts with nice swimming pools. We took the exit at 45,819569 - 10,498611 which took us 30 mins and was doable but steep for about 20 meters scrambling up the hillside. The forest road brought us back to our car. That part of the canyon took us about 2 hours (with 4 beginners of which 2 were kids). To continue until the end would have been 3 hours more.
