Introduction
While the lower part was known since long time ago, the crazy upper part has only been discovered since a few years. Integrale is one of the toughest canyons of the alps.
Approach
Basically you'll have to walk up into the Val Cramosina on its northern side, at the Pian Tigiasc (alt. 1600m), a path leads towards the river. That's where the canyon begins.
Descent
While not as continuous as its neighbour Usèdi, Cramosina has an incredible section of about 6 rappels which is considered to be amongst the most beautiful of the country.
Exit
Towards the end, the possibilites of escapes are getting more and more numerous, but if done until the very End, you'll find yourself practically at your car.
