Introduction
Short canyon, definitely worth it as an addition to one of the nearby canyons.
Approach
Go up to the Pantenbrugg, and walk towards Hintersand. About 100m after passing by the Walenbach, a path leads up to the start of the canyon.
Descent
Some rappels are made on natural anchors (trees), the bigger ones have got single anchors.
Exit
Same as on your way up, unless you want to combine it with Linthschlucht.
