We were in the first part, which is particularly suitable for canyoning enthusiasts who love jumping. The highest parts in this part measure 20 meters. The second part follows on seamlessly with an 80-meter cascade. This is followed later by a 130 meter high cascade.

At the exit before the C80: Shortly before the C80, a path leads out of the canyon on the left bank. At the beginning, a short section is very steep and athletic, then a leisurely, albeit constantly uphill hiking trail.
