Watery rappel canyon

Access: machine translated ➜

From the direction of Turin into the Valle d'Aosta. Pass the town of Aosta and continue towards the Mont Blanc tunnel. Then leave the highway and go to Morgex. There park the car for the exit directly at the Torrente di Licony (P2 - see maps).\n\nWith the second car up to Morge to the parking lot P1 (1640m Höhe - see maps).

Approach (25 min): machine translated ➜

From P1 to E. (upper and üblicher entry at 1620m Höhe)\n\according to the map 2 it seems möglich to enter directly at the Brückenreste before the beginning of the narrowing: "E2" at about 1480m Höhe (Geuna/Ruotolo draw here in the sketch of their book an exit möglichkeit). So könnte one could save at least 45 min. Bachhatscher. The question is whether the old path to the dilapidated bridge can still be found without problems (see entry in map 2).

Tour (4 h 30): machine translated ➜

About 12 rappel. After the mündung of the Colomba into the Torrente Liscony, the water flow can increase significantly. Towards the exit of the tour öthe canyon opens up and there are länger runs to do. Exit then onto the road that runs along the right above the stream (995m Höhe).

Return (10 min): machine translated ➜

From the stream directly to the car.
