Access: machine translated ➜

From Turin (if necessary from the northern bypass freeway Tangenziale Nord - E 64) on the freeway A 32 (E 70) in western direction up the Val Susa Direction Susa/Tunnel du Frejus/Briancon. Before the tollbooth we leave the highway by the exit Avigliana West ("Ovest") on the SS 24 in direction Almes. At the next traffic circle (after a good 1000 m) we take the third exit (SS 24) in western direction). We drive basically parallel to the highway. After 5.3 km (from the traffic circle) we turn right towards Caprie. 800m further on we cross the SP 199, go half-right for a few meters and then turn left into Via Papa Giovanni XXIII. At the exit of this road we park our first car near the stream. With the second one we go back to SP 199, then turn right over the bridge and go straight west through the village. We now drive uphill on Via Peroldrado for 3km (from the bridge) in serpentines. At the junction we continue straight on for about 200m towards Campanbianco-Celle and park the second car on the left before the bridge.

Approach (5 min): machine translated ➜

To the right of an information board on the orographic right slope of the Sessi on a path down to the stream.

Tour (3 h): machine translated ➜

Many jumps possible. Canyon in north-south orientation. The red markings are partly for canyonisti, but partly also for hikers. Especially in the lower part they can be helpful.

Return (10 min): machine translated ➜

After a large block in the middle of the streambed, we leave the streambed to the left onto a path that leads us to the car.

Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Sessi DC+ pour ce qu'on en sait. Passer dans l'actif pouvait s'avérer olé olé par endroit. Canyon plutôt adhérent contrairement au commentaires précédents (merci la crue ?). En tout cas très très belle découverte, on s'est régalé. Si on sonde tout correctement, il est possible de vraiment rendre le canyon ludique ! Attention : la Trattoria a changé de propriétaire, et ne fait plus la navette. Nous avons fait du stop. Descente en 3h30, en prenant le temps. (Quelle: https://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon-debit/2636/observations.html)

Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Sessi Très beau, très ludique. Pas mal de BE très sympa, on a même partagé des cordes dans les ressauts qui s'enchaînent vers la fin. Au demeurant, il y a pas mal d'endroit où il devrait être possible de doubler l'équipement pour être plus dans le flux.

Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Sessi Canyon fait à 3 en 3h15. Les premiers et derniers sauts, ainsi que le saut de l'arbre, se font en amortissant l'entrée dans l'eau. Sinon tous les sauts habituels se font sans problème. Plus de débit que d'habitude, la vasque suspendue est à éviter en prenant la main courante, qui est salie par la boue dans sa partie basse. Attention la Trattoria de Paolo est fermée pour travaux jusqu'au 21 juillet. (Quelle: https://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon-debit/2636/observations.html)

A very scenic canyon with spectacular abseils. The rock is very grippy in places and very slippery in others. The anchors are mostly made of high-quality material, but some are in very poor condition.
