Wenig interessanter Canyon, zu Beginn längere Laufstrecken. Das Ende eignet sich sicher gut um leute mitzunehmen die noch nie Canyoning gemacht haben.
Not very interesting canyon, longer running sections at the beginning. The exit is certainly suitable for people who have never been canyoning before.

Zwei Abschnitte mit jeweils etwa 4 Abseiler, dazwischen eine sehr lange Laufpassage wo man am besten zurück auf den Wanderweg geht. Oberer Teil kaum lohnenswert. Im unteren Teil geht manchmal ein 5m Sprung.
Two parts with about 4 rappels each, in between a very long walking passage where it is best to return to the hiking trail. Upper part hardly worthwhile. In the lower part there is sometimes a 5m jump.
