Introduction[edit]

Rather aquatic canyon where some parts are covered by big boulders.

Approach[edit]

It is possible to walk up from Tierfehd, but there's also a possibility for an alpine taxi. At Hintersand there are two bigger streams coming in, Oberstafelbach, and Bifertenbach. Bifertenbach is on the left side, and a hiking path goes up, and even crosses the canyon just at its start.

Descent[edit]

Several active rappels in strong waterflow, partially underneith boulders.

Exit[edit]

Same as the way up, minus the length of the canyon.

Red tape[edit]
