Introduction[edit]

Nice autumn canyon below the north face of the dents du Midi. The first part is quite vertical, but still doable with a strong water flow. After the 65m Rappel, it flattens out and gets less interesting for a while.

Below the road, there is another short sections with 4-5 rappels where it can get quite technical if there is a lot of water.
