Summary:
Beautiful, short and narrow lime canyon; many slippery places; some entanglements; cold water; very susceptible to flooding; only short abseil steps over Inox single hooks; possibly a difficult emergency exit possibility in the middle of the canyon; well combinable with the Ackersbach; the combination with the nearby long Gerbach tour (! ropes 2x40m/ 4-5h ) I would recommend only extremely sporty canyoneers. Exposure south; most beautiful light incidence from midday; no or poor cell phone reception, in spring a lot of meltwater; large catchment area (Egelseehörndl, Labenberg, gr. Pitscherberg, Osterhorn).
