Rappel canyon with fun potential.

Access: machine translated ➜

Coming from Ivrea or Turin we approach the valley of Torrente Orco. On the SP460, passing Cuorgne and Pont Canavese, we go up the Orco valley to Sparone (about 4.5 km after Pont Canavese). We continue along the SP460 and then, 5.6 km after Sparone, we turn left and cross the Torrente Orco. After the bridge turn right towards Verne, Foere. 350m after the bridge over the Orco we come to the bridge over the Rio Vollungo. 50m further we can park our car on the left of the road for the exit.\n\nWith a second car we continue to Locana and there we turn left and go uphill towards Piane, Chironio. About 2.2 km from Locana, we come to a road junction where we turn left towards Chironio. We stay here on the right and head for Balmella and Pianema. Then, where the road for Pianema, Piandemma turns right, we can park our second car - about 50m before the houses of Balmella Inferiore.

Approach (1 h 40): machine translated ➜

We continue walking down the road to the right past the houses of Balmella inferiore and down the slope to the stream. Here we can walk a few more meters on the right bank to the beginning of the gorge, where the entry is.

Tour (4 h): machine translated ➜

About 20 rappels, many possible jumps and slides

Return (5 min): machine translated ➜

still under the road bridge and then out to the right, to the road and the car.

Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Vallungo L'équipement est très bon et ne semble pas avoir été affecté par la grosse crue de cet été J'ai l'impression que les canyons orientés nord sont moins impactés que ceux au sud. Sûrement une question de bassin versant également.Tout passe parfaitement avec un débit correct à faibleNous avons dormi 3 nuits à la Ghita à Sparone, que je conseille chaudement (Quelle: https://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon-debit/22937/observations.html)
