At Balmuccia, follow the signs for Carcoforo. Once you reach Rimasco, continue for 1 km, still following the signs for Carcoforo, then leave your car in a parking lot on the right near the signs for "Dorca" (there is a monorail service to the hamlet).

Take trail 367 to Dorca, which climbs steeply through the woods. You pass through the village of "Segheria" and then reach a fork. Both trails lead to Dorca. The one on the right is short and steep, while the one on the left is gentler but longer, either way, it takes about 30 minutes. You reach Dorca. Here, continue on the trail for a short distance until it crosses the Rio della Gula, where you enter the canyon.

The first part of the route features some downclimbs that are best tackled with a rope attached to a tree for safety, the canyon has no escape routes We begin by descending into the river bed between boulders, with some downclimbing, after 10 min. The first C9dx+C25sx is found, then you reach the large 120m waterfall divided into MC3sx+C33sx+C52sx+C30sx, continuing C12dx+C25dx, C15sx+C33sx, C6sx from tree, C8dx… the stream flows into the Egua which you have to cross and then go back up 50 m until you find the car
