WaterflowIntroduction
Alpine canyon with many 20-30m rappels, most of them not vertical.
Approach
Use the Gondola to Kilcherberg, from there it's still almost 900m uphill. Just before reaching the Seewli, follow down the first water stream which seeps down into the rocks.
Descent
The first rappel is completely dry, the water reappears from the left on the second one. From then on, the canyon continuously has 20-30m slab waterfalls, which unfortunately are not well polished. The best part is a 60m waterfall which leads into a big open hall. While you have possibilities to get out of the water almost all the time, leaving the canyon is impossible until the very end.
Exit
Reach the hiking path, from which one you'll get back to Kilcherberge. Alternatively, abseil down to the valley in the neighbouring canyon Selderbach, which most certainly will be dry at that period of the year.
