Walked in a group of 5 people. Unfortunately, we didn't park the second car down by the river (road/field path would have been OK) but up in the village. So we had to walk a good half hour back to the car. The stream itself was "super", i.e. many very beautiful spots in the jungle, we saw a black snake and lots of butterflies. There were anchors in the most important places. Many jumps and slides can be repeated without any problems.

There were several "rustling" noises on the access, which could have been, among other things, slapping, so go slowly. We had chosen the "old" access based on the Ropewiki GPS data and walked around quite wildly in the cornfield or grass, almost like in a labyrinth. In the stream, we placed a bolt on the right at rappel 2 and marked the exit with cairns. Hotsprings afterwards are highly recommended. A car with a higher edge or similar is recommended for the approach.

We were lucky enough to visit the canyon "later" (around 13:30 at the entry) as there were already a lot of people in the creek before us. This turned out to be a good thing as we had plenty of shade on the way back. During access, we had to search for the path several times even though there were many people in the stream before us that day. We also found a wasps' nest :-|. The first part of the tour is pretty good, it's all up to the high rappel, then a bit more walking until you come out at the last rappel.

Ascent with 6 people as part of the RIC 2024. Unfortunately we started from the top as we had no precise information on the best way to traverse down into the stream. We chose the exit too early and missed the last two rappels. If you find a good middle entry point, it's certainly a relatively nice half-day tour. The stream was quite dirty (lots of garbage) and the water was not clear and not completely clean.

Ascent as part of the RIC 2024, got "lost" several times during access as we had no exact information but then found the canyon with the help of the locals. Second belaystation was difficult to reach (swinging) or staying on the right side from the top. Third stand had permanent "water", was a bit uncomfortable. On the way back, avoid contact with locals in the houses below or be friendly.

The water level from the road below to the stream above was somewhat "distorted", i.e. we had a little more water in the stream than expected. The stream was slippery in places, but also tolerates water well. Some of the stands were used or set up outside the water flow on the tree and ropeway systems were used in some places. Tour aborted at bridge due to water level.

Again used as an alternative stream as Favarinis and Pissanda still had a little too much water.

Because it was so beautiful (and many other streams had too much water) we walked it again.

19.10.2024 Rio Rivis Max H. ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 High Completed ✔ machine translated ➜

Only walked the lower part. Very nice tour when there was a bit more water. Siphon at the second rappel was still negligible. The amount of water on the rappel was manageable. Key point with more water probably the first abseil channel under the rock.

Inserted as an afternoon tour in the rain. Quite a lot of wumps if you catch the stream but you can usually go right/left/under it. Still possible with more water than we had.

Stream due to heavy rainfall (80L/day). There is a white sling hanging from a tree where the access branches off into the creek. I didn't remember the creek being so nice, but with a lot of water it is pretty good. No water problems during rappel. Most of the anchors are OK, some of the slings were not ideal and have been replaced. The lower part is also nice, if you disregard the 5min block hopping after the hiking trail. Directly before the bridge turn right up to avoid the blackberries. Pictures once 40er directly after the entry from below and once last waterfall before the trail crossing (possible water level check).

17.10.2024 Val Maggiore (intermedio) Max H. ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ machine translated ➜

Stream due to weather forecast rain. It is possible to leave the canyon in many places. It tolerates water well and would certainly be "interesting" if the water level was three or four times higher than we had. We parked one car at the bottom and the second car at the marked parking lot at the top and then walked along the stream for about 15 minutes up to the 5m jump. Anchors almost everywhere ProCanyon style.

We started in the middle of the day. It was a nice tour with many shorter rappels. Water level according to the reference photo did not cause any problems in the narrow sections, should still be possible with a slightly higher water level. Be careful at the beginning at the first house to the left up into the forest (GPS was helpful).

15.10.2024 Frauenbach Max H. ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 High Completed ✔ machine translated ➜

Ascended from the middle to the exit with a slightly higher water level (see before/after pictures) as a warm-up tour. No water problems during the rappel. On the last rappel, 53m was enough to get from the end of the chain to the bottom. At one point in the tour we had to extend the rope due to a lack of anchors. Stands were intact at all important points, but could be improved in places.

Fresh on access and fresh in the stream. Slides no. two and three possible. Communication problems when cutting the rope at the cannon tube. The traverese rope is missing in a narrow section. Final waterfalls with some wumps.
