30.11 Bern Trümmelbach V Bina 5/5⭐ 💧
Etwas mehr Wasser als vor zwei Wochen. Noch kein Eis in der Schlucht. Zustieg auch kein Problem.
A little more water than two weeks ago. Still no ice in the canyon. Access also no problem.
29.11 Πελοποννήσου Gerakina, Φαράγγι Γερακίνα Theda 2/5⭐ 💧
Beginn des Zustiegs siehe Karte. Alles ok. Sammlerstück.
See map for start of access. Everything ok. Collector's item.
28.11 Canarias Herques sup. Jeroen Kirchner 1.5/5⭐ 💧
Collector canyon. Neighbouring Volcán canyon has the better scenery and is less monotonous. Also in Herques inf. the walking is less teduous. Given the few repetitions some downclimbing is unbolted & some single anchors remain (single steel maillons).
28.11 Δυτικής Ελλάδας Vilivina, , Φαράγγι Βιλιβίνας Theda 4/5⭐ 💧
Schöne Tour. Alles ok. Nur bis zur Brücke (Piste/Zwischenausstieg) begangen.
Nice tour. Everything ok. Only walked up to the bridge (slope/intermediate exit).
28.11 Πελοποννήσου Milon, Φαράγγι Μύλων Theda 4/5⭐ 💧
Alles in Ordnung. Schöne Tour. Die wahre Herausforderung war der Anmarsch durch das Waldbrandbaumleichenmassaker.
Everything in order. Nice tour. The real challenge was the approach through the forest fire tree massacre.
26.11 Autónoma da Madeira Pedra Branca Casa Vento Madeira 4/5⭐ 💧
Nach ein paar Tagen mit Regenfällen ein sportlicher aber gut machbarer Wasserstand. Auch die hohen Wellen, die man am Stand des Schlusswasserfalls schön beobachten kann, waren eindrucksvoll.
After a few days of rain, this was a sporty but manageable water level. The high waves, which can be observed beautifully at the level of the final waterfall, were also impressive.
24.11 Canarias Volcán Jeroen Kirchner 4/5⭐ 💧
Short version is described here, but the lower part is a very scenic-volcanic hike, with caves that may have been inhabited by the Guanches. It would be a shame to miss it. We continued until shortly before the highway, exited right to the secondary road + 5min of crosscountry to the highway exit and tunnel, which takes us back to the car at Cafeteria Los Roques (3-4hr) continuing to the beach would also be an option.
23.11 Santa Cruz de Tenerife Orchilla Jeroen Kirchner 3/5⭐ 💧
Done Orchilla inf. from El Frontón village with one car. Similar to the superiore, it can be combined with remote, but well bolted rockclimbs (25m. max). Orchilla inf. with exit along the Camino Real (before the 2 biggest drops) is possible with one 50m. Lower than this is said to be full of plants and bringing machete would be recommended, also two cars and bigger ropes (max. 44). Bolting not ideal but workable.
17.11 Tirol Zammer Loch Peter Lampacher 4/5⭐ 💧
Doch noch gegangen nach 3 Wochen ohne Regen. Wasserstand war "normal" für die Tour. Siehe Foto zur Einschätzung. Beschriebener Zustieg ist zu weit, besser in einem der Tobel welche man überquert abseilen (Haken gesehen, aber nicht benutzt). Abenteuercanyon, nix für schwache Nerven.
But still gone after 3 weeks without rain. Water level was "normal" for the tour. See photo for assessment. Described access is too far, better to rappel in one of the ravines you cross (anchors seen but not used). Adventure canyon, not for the faint-hearted.
