2026-05-22: Everything OK
Approach: From the parking lot walk in the direction of the village center/bridge. Then left along the creek --> after the barrier you can see the last rappel (water level control) --> on the left side you pass the material ropeway --> hiking trail up past the back of the houses --> hiking trail goes over small stone bridge --> signposts --> small House --> stone steps with railing --> iron gate --> chapel --> leave hiking trail at the right bend at approx. 450Hm --> left narrow path down to the creek --> right past the rock (put on harness for rock) --> ahead to the tree --> from the tree 6m rappel (entry 420Hm).
Tour: From the beginning you already have a very impressive view --> the first small pool you can slide (depending on gravel or stones) --> then follows immediately the approx. 40m waterfall (very slippery and sharp edges). This place can also be rappelled left 45m (!) outside the water (reachable via rope traverse) --> two short slides (flat) --> C22m downclimb (can also be rappelled outside the water) --> downclimb --> stone bridge --> short rappel or jump (5m) --> narrow channel (! Slippery) --> downclimb right about 20m (final part can also be rappelled) --> downclimb --> 2m downclimb right --> jump 6m (or rappel) --> final waterfall about 15m (very slippery, sharp edge) --> depending on the depth of the gump the last 2 places can also be rappelled (also possibility to rappel).

Approach: Walk along the sidewalk along the road, 50 m north of the pizzeria over the guardrail to the Ticino. Follow the river down to the mouth of the Boggera. Then follow the watercourse of the Boggera, under the bridges to the gravel bank and the exit of the Boggera. Approx. 100m left before the stream there is a hiking trail upwards --> with a steep ascent you quickly gain altitude --> after a good 15min. you cross the stream for the first time (warning sign) --> to walk the lower part of the canyon you still have to walk up the hiking trail for approx. 480Hm --> then enter the stream on the left.
Tour: The tour is one of the most beautiful and best known canyons in the area and is therefore also very popular --> but if you make a canyoning vacation in Switzerland, this scenic breathtaking canyon should not be missed --> to put it in a nutshell, the canyon offers everything a casual canyoning tour should have --> there are many jumps, slides and rappel in every shape and height --> you should be careful only at the sharp edges --> even with a lot of water is caution --> to avoid long waiting times, it is recommended to leave early.

Approach: Immediately to the right next to the small bridge a steep hiking trail goes into the forest --> after an iron gate it continues steeply uphill to about 518Hm --> here to the left (Steinmandl) --> along the hiking trail it goes up again --> to the left of the path large rock slab --> after a short time you come out of the forest and you have a beautiful view into the canyon. From here (danger sign) it goes down shortly to the creek (rope belay on the right in the steep terrain possible) --> entry at 480Hm.
Tour: Arrived at the stream you can already see the impressive granite boulders that you do not often get to see --> here comes a 20m rappel (overhanging) --> the downclimb you could also downclimb right --> next comes a 42m rappel, in the overhang with sharp edges below the boulder (very impressive) --> the next rappel or. Slides are to be enjoyed with caution (current and backflow danger) --> after the big clamping block (gigantic) are still some pools in very narrow canyon part --> by clear water, however, you always have a good view to estimate the places --> at the end you come from vertically towering rock walls in a flat wide stream gravel bed with the 2 bridges.
