From corner of the cemetery, walk uphill to point A on the map crossing the river and continue on the left-hand side of the river. Pass a water reservoir and follow a well-marked path in serpentines. Exit B to the corner of the cemetery, don’t use this small (exit) path to enter the canyon. From point B climbing up is to steep and dangerous!

Normal water flow. No special remarks. Please note, enter the canyon after 9:00 and exit before 18:00. At the upper start point next to the bridge there is a waterpoint to fill up your water bottle.

We made contact with Mr. Carciu of the Tervolit HEC before our descent as suggested by Pascal in the guidebook. At the hydro dam all water was taken into another capture so we started completely dry. There is a local man living next to the dam, he is also very concerned about your safety and reminds you if there is permission of the HEC to enter the canyon. The canyon was easy, climbing and sliding and some descents. One bolt was missing so we had to make an extra long descent at one of the stations. The original bolt was cut off by debris, this happened already several times according to Pascal. The last part of the canyon was an easy walk out, there are some (hot) springs along the hugh canyon wall. This canyon is highly recommended. And if you have energy and time enough it could be combined with the GjΓ«rzezΓ« canyon next to the entrance of the Holtit.
