Man startet mit C60, gefolgt von C50, dann kommt eine längere Engstelle (Vorsicht bei hohem Wasserstands!!!! Nach dem C120 (Event. unterteilbar 70/50) folgen einige kleine Abseilstellen,bis zum Start des unteren Teils .
>> Achtung das Wasserstandsbild im Buch Eldorado Ticino von Nizzola gilt nur für den Inferior Teil. Für die Engstelle im Intermedio Teil ist doch merklich weniger Wasser als das "max Bild" in Buch zeigt zu empfehlen !! <<
If who is looking for a very vertical demanding canyon is exactly right here --> in this canyon you should rappel well mastered --> just as well should be weather and water optimal --> you can start the canyon after the 115m rappel or at the very top --> to go gently on the ropes always give enough rope (partly very sharp edges) --> basically you have in the whole canyon a breathtaking view --> to enjoy this you have to bring a little courage --> caution is in the lower part (after the stone bridge) --> rockfall danger by rope retrival or bathers.

High water at the moment. Only the anchor of the first c70 was hard to reach, becease you need to cross the flow. After that all quite easy.
The lower part was nice and sunny.

DC-. Mais c'est parfait pour ses grande longueur. Un peu des algues sur les 3 dernières cascades. C'était parfait avec les risques d'orage il y a pleins d'échapatoire.
