Access: no translation available

Die Fahrt hoch dauert eine Weile, die Bergstrasse ist einspurig und hat viele Kurven. Der Canyon ist definitiv schneller als die Fahrt hoch.

Approach (10 min): no translation available

Direkt zwischen dem Canyon und dem Einschnitt südlich davon geht eine Wegspur hoch. Dort geht es am schnellsten zum Start.

Tour (20 min): no translation available

Ein paar kleine Abseiler, und schon ist man wieder draussen.

Return (2 min): no translation available

Nur ein paar Schritte und schon ist man wieder beim Auto.

Have probably set the record for walking time. 15 minutes from car to car. We didn't even stuff the ropes back into the rucksack but threaded them straight to the next anchor.

Kleines Einzugsgebiet, geht quasi immer.

Important information

Danger notice / Disclaimer

Walking in gorges (canyoning) involves non-obvious and potentially lethal dangers! In order to face them adequately, a thorough preparation of any walk is absolutely necessary. Reading the information available on this website is in no way sufficient for such a thorough preparation.

The available descriptions are based on personal experiences of different climbers and accordingly give a subjective impression of the conditions at a certain date in the past. The conditions can change significantly at any time due to, among other things, the weather (precipitation, snowmelt, ...) or possible events in alpine terrain (rockfalls, avalanches, ...). The described technical installations can also change radically due to natural events (floods, corrosion) or human intervention (vandalism, theft, ...).

Accordingly, neither the correct nor the complete description can be guaranteed by the site operators and creators of the information available here. Opencanyon.org disclaims any liability for damages of any nature!
