Introduction
Long alpine canyon, it has two sections with nice waterfalls, almost at the top, and the very bottom.
Approach
Walk up to Riesflüestäfelo, the path is already not very marked. Then it is the best to work with satellite image as you can see a path starting north of the latter, at around 1650m and leading to the start of the canyon. In between you'll have to walk through a lot of high grass. Entering the canyon has been done by a 35m abseil from a tree.
Descent
It starts with large open 20-30m waterfalls before entering the first series of more vertical and condensed Rappels. Then the middle section is a lot of downclimbs, on the way, several smaller rivers join on both sides of the slopes. To finish, the last 100m of altitude are again interesting, including a 40m fall.
Exit
The canyon finishes right where the car is parked.
