Access:

Approach ():
The place was already known as the "cravasco lakes", but going much further upstream from the aforementioned lakes at an altitude of 780 m where the wide approach mule track intersects the stream, I discovered the beginning of what can effectively be defined as a gorge, where the walls narrow and the water flows deep, creating waterfalls up to 20 meters high and small lakes (some diveable).
Tour ():
All rappels are equipped with 8 mm fixes. 1) single right 6 meters (plate and quick link) 2) single left 15 meters (plate and quick link) 3) double (plate/cord/plate and quick link) left 15 meters 4) single right 10 meters (supported) (plate and quick link) 5) double (chain) bank 10 meters 6) single right 18 meters (under bridge) (plate and quick link) 7) single right 8 meters (plate and quick link) 8) single left 20 meters (very exposed) (plate with ring) (here it would be necessary to create a handrail during the next repetition because the anchor is really very exposed and not trivial to reach) 9) single left 5 meters (plate with ring) 10) single right 10 meters (plate and quick link) 11) single right 15 meters (plate and quick link) with diverter (plate and cord) at -4 meters
