Introduction[edit]

A large valley, but the rock is not good to form a deep canyon. Many boulders on the way down.

Approach[edit]

From the parking cross the village, and walk up the hiking trail until you reach the "Niwa Suone" ("new irrigation canal"). This one goes straight to the start of the canyon.

Descent[edit]

First part is promising, some interesting rappels in an interesting rock, with 1-2 Possible jumps. But afterwards it's just a huge mess of boulders. At the very End there are another 3-4 rappels, but this is not enough to make it up for the downclimbs.

  • Doesn't look too bad, but the rest of the canyon is not like this
  • Exit[edit]

    Just a few meters to walk along the riverbed.

    Background[edit]

    Because of the many boulders, this canyon had to wait until november 2021 to be explored. Probably won't be repeated anytime soon.
