07.07 Tessin Riale di Censo Timothé Zen-Ruffinen 3/5⭐ 💧
Some woods are in the canyon. Many hammer-in bolts, could be refurbished at some point. Awesome slides, and quite a beautiful canyon.

Très belles cascades au départ. Ensuite assez horizontal, de la marche. Dernière cascade jolie.
Beautiful waterfalls at the start. Then it’s mostly flat, with some walking. The last waterfall is pretty.

Nice, but very short canyon (only 4 rappels) with a boring and long exit to the river. You can also exit on a right, just when you see an old bridge. Last 17m rappel is rather A5, then A3... but very nice ...

Schöner kleiner alpiner Canyon. Zustieg easy mit dem bike zum Stausee. Dann zu Fuss zur Wasserfassung wegen Weidevieh und weglos am Weidezaun entlang hoch. Vom See etwa 30-40 min zum Einstieg. Oberer Teil eher zum Verlängern. Paar kleine Abseiler, landschaftlich schön. Unterer Teil (Zwischeneinstieg möglich) sehr eindrucksvoll mit dem weissen Marmor und tollen Abseilern. Rutschen am Schluss vom 30iger eher heikel. Nicht tief. Alle Haken in gutem Zustand. Bei den Hohen Doppelanker. Ein Haken bei Mehrfachstelle ergänzt. Griffiger Fels. Der 58er am Schluss kann auch nach 50m auf Band abgeklettert werden. Lohnenswerte abgeschiedene Tour
A beautiful little alpine canyon. Easy bike access to the reservoir. Then on foot to the water intake due to grazing livestock, and up along the pasture fence where there’s no trail. About 30–40 minutes from the lake to the entry. The upper section is better suited for extending the route. A few short rappels, scenic. The lower section (with a possible intermediate start) is very impressive with its white marble and great rappels. The slide at the end of the 58er is a bit tricky. Not deep. All anchors are in good condition. Double anchors at the high points. One anchor added at a multi-pitch section. Rock with good grip. The 58-meter pitch at the end can also be downclimbed after 50 meters onto a ledge. A rewarding, secluded route

Di ritorno dal Sorba Superiore abbiamo fatto anche questo tratto... bello ma cortissimo. Molto affollato...
On our way back from Sorba Superiore, we also hiked this section... beautiful but very short. It was very crowded...

Abbiamo fatto similmente a una relazione precedente... notte in tenda alla base del torrente (ci sono dei bellissimi prati pianeggianti) poi la mattina abbiamo fatto il canyon. Ci sono delle belle cascate con vasche stupende... un gioiellino lontano da tutto, corto, alla fine lo abbiamo percorso 2 volte di fila (per risalire dalla base del canyon all'inizio ci vogliono 15 min.) Punti singoli neanche in tutte le cascate ma tante vie di fuga.
We did something similar to what we described in a previous post... we spent the night in a tent at the base of the stream (there are some beautiful, flat meadows), then in the morning we hiked through the canyon. There are some beautiful waterfalls with stunning pools… a little gem far from everything, short—in the end, we went through it twice in a row (it takes 15 minutes to hike back up from the bottom of the canyon to the start). There aren’t even single anchor points at all the waterfalls, but there are plenty of escape routes.

06.07 Graubünden Rià di Ri Bubtore 3/5⭐ 💧
Sehr sauber in Moment. Genial dass man die Zanzibar Slide wieder hoch kann, da traut man sich jedes mal noch ein Stück höher.
It's really clean right now. It's awesome that you can slide back up the Zanzibar Slide—it gives you the confidence to go a little higher each time.
06.07 Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Rots de Balme Bina 2.5/5⭐ 💧
Hübsche, kleine Schlucht. Leider viel zu kurz. Wir waren gemütlich in weniger als 1h durch.
A pretty little canyon. Unfortunately, it's way too short. We strolled through it in less than an hour.

Amazing one of the best canyons in my life... some damagrd abseiling points
Amazing—one of the best canyons I've ever been to... some damaged abseiling points
