Access: machine translated ➜

From Bellinzona, take the road on the right bank of the Ticino towards Tenero and Locarno. You pass through the village of Sementina. Cross the Sementina here. Immediately after the bridge, turn right and park at the side of the road.

Approach (30 min): machine translated ➜

Take the car back over the bridge and take the first road to the left. At the exit of the short road, follow the road directly to the left. At the next junction, keep left again and after three hairpin bends continue straight on for a short distance until you see a large house on the right (probably a water supply)

Tour (1 h 10): machine translated ➜

Two mini rappels, then c90. Directly after this you can ascend again orographically to the left to make another passage. Caution: there is a sharp edge in the C90.

Return (25 min): machine translated ➜

Walk in the stream for about 30 minutes.

Nichts spezielles zu bemerken. Nur der Seilzug auf dem 90m ist bei dem Wasserstand richtig heftig so dass man oben das Seil problemlos loslassen kann mit der tiefsten Reibungsstufe und es fängt nicht an zu rutschen. Danach geht es konzentriert kopfabwärts runter.
