Beautiful tour. The upper part up to the intermediate entry/exit is quite short, but can also be done well with (experienced) children. Significantly more water contact in the second part. The anchor on the last rappel is still missing. On 14.8.24 a group placed an emergency anchor by hand on the right side. See picture. However, we decided not to use it. With 2 60 meter ropes, however, the abseil is easy. Alternatively, use the dry rappelling routes on the right (possibly with an existing intermediate belay station). There is a corresponding rope railing in front of the last 3 rappels. See picture We did the first part with the children and the second without. There is significantly more water contact, so it was a good mountain pass. Unfortunately, jumping / sliding was not possible as everything was covered in gravel. At least in the first part. We didn't try it in the second part. At the 18-metre rappel right at the start of the second part, the stream splits and you can go straight down the waterfall, but you have to hang freely from a rope. We went down on the right. But then you have to pull off and corner over 2 steps. We only saw this too late, but it still went well

Everything was fine. Nice short tour. We took the intermediate ascent, as recommended in various guides, and the second rappel and the one after the swimming section are good for jumping. Coordinates of the intermediate entrance: 46.27576755°N 08.68758300°E

Beautiful tour. Also works well with children

Very beautiful canyon. Good water level. But it shouldn't be much more than that. All rope railings / ropes to climb up were in good condition. Group of 6 people. Took about 2:10 each for the middle and lower parts. The first high rappel in the middle part damaged a rope. Just after you cross the waterfall. So be careful.

Good water level. Group of 6 children and 6 adults took 3:30 hours. We set up two abseiling points where possible. Unfortunately not much jumping and sliding in the canyon. Partly because the pools were too gravelly. Several higher rappels. At the exit there are two nice jumps. Climb the first one at the last pool on the left up the wall. There is a rope from the pool so that you can jump several times. The second jump from the wall on the way back.

Beautiful canyon. We were a larger group with 4 children who had already done some canyoning. We had a lot of fun on the slides and jumps. Walking time to the start from the barrier 45 minutes. To the children's exit at the stone bridge about 3 hours walking time. The last two rappels under the stone bridge may be difficult for children, as all the water pressure is concentrated in a narrow chute. Coordinates Parking lot at the barrier 46.22146688°N 08.74649942°E (access and exit) Exit either at the bridge or after the last two rappels immediately downstream to the right up the small path on the road and then walk up to the road bridge. This is much easier than continuing along the streambed.
