15.05.2025 Bruckgraben GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
Less sun and water than expected. Quite a lot of gravel, but it was well distributed - on the walking passages and not in the basins. The former first rappel through the hole between the clamping blocks is now hardly feasible. At the beginning of the gorge, there is a large wooden hut which is better for rappels than it looks from above. The way back through the Enns was quite cold. Nevertheless, always beautiful.

First time the lower part, quite worthwhile appendage, after a few block rappels in the forest gorge it gets tight again with a few nice rappels, a zipline and a jump.

Water level higher than normal which made the many slides more fun. This time we did the variant with changing cars, which I would not recommend, almost 1h there and back changing cars and then a tedious and slippery 40 min down to the entry. Lots of wild garlic along the way. In the gorge everything passes, this time we also did the lower part. 4.5h in the gorge.

Climbed via the blue marked path from Il Pin. Dry at the top, then more and more water at the bottom. The siphon block is currently open at the bottom and there is even an abseil stand on the outside of the block. We rappelled via the hanging stand and the redirection onto the clamping block. Don't get off too early, otherwise you'll miss the most beautiful jump in the gorge. Lots of downclimbing but the rock is easy to grip. Varied gorge.

Super slippery and quite a lot of cold water. My neoprene socks were still frozen in the morning. The waterfall stairs are beautiful.

Done today with the best water flow, lots to swim and a wonderful atmosphere. Exit via the marked path, secured with electric cables and fixed ropes, which leads up from the mouth on the orographic left bank of the gorge. The Verdon gorge had too much water for the standard exit

The last group of many to enter today, hence the murky water. The gorge is otherwise beautiful, narrow sections and high waterfalls. The smaller steps are often equipped with knot ropes, the high waterfalls are perfectly set up. We ran into a French group at the 60m drop, but were able to rappel easily via the intermediate pitch on the right, while the French took the intermediate pitch on the left.

Good water flow from top to bottom. Transparent water and white rock make the tour a feast for the eyes. There are also a few jumps, very rewarding in these conditions.

08.05.2025 Riou de la Bollène GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
A somewhat peculiar tour, slippery like in Austria and slides like in Ticino. The two big slides are the star of the canyon, otherwise it's mostly a forest canyon with quite arduous climbs. Quite a few jumps possible

07.05.2025 Vallon de l'Infernet (Vesubie) GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 High Completed ✔ ➜
Evening tour after the thunderstorm. A lot of water and a lot of pressure, but everything went smoothly thanks to the good belays. The slide is fine but not yet slippery enough. Warm water compared to the Bagnolar. You don't have to swim through the Vesubie, which would hardly have been possible today, there is a well-trodden path on the left bank that leads to a meadow with a power pole, where an overgrown forest path leads back to the access path

06.05.2025 Vallon de l'Imberguet GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
Great fun canyon when the water is right, lots of jumping and slides. We hiked with neoprene from the Peira parking lot to the entry (20min road and hike). The first part of the canyon, which is still wooded, is accessed via a path that is often secured, as it is forbidden to enter the canyon bed due to crabs. When the canyon narrows, it gets fun. Just before the end, the Canal des Vesubie crosses the gorge, the water for the next few pools was milky today. Return on foot via the road (30mim), passing through a tunnel. Very bad, better to park a second car at the bottom

06.05.2025 Vallon de la Peira GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
At the beginning still a bit dark forest canyon, then beautiful, high waterfall steps with well-developed stands. We used the intermediate stands after -20 and -15 for the second and third high rappels. In the canyon we met a group of water rescuers who allowed us to use their ropes at the first big waterfall.

We climbed the well-marked and secured access path to Boulder Area 51 above the Agritourismo. A slippery and foggy tour with beautiful individual sections. Unfortunately, I lost my black Olympus Tough TG6 somewhere after the first abseil and the first deep pool.

We boarded via the route described as an alternative. At the entry there were 3 cars of an Italian group, our 3 cars just had enough space. Unfortunately there was virtually no sun and a cold wind. The canyon was nice and had some very nice jumps to offer. Way back via the water pipe path by the dilapidated dam

Everything tip topi One down climb would be awkward with high water, because anchor is not there anymore. If you walking up follow the canyon you enter the canyon not at the start missing 1 or 2 waterfalls.

11.01.2025 Cuestis Horst Lambauer ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
Everything was tip top. The lower 60 was really nice and icy. It's unusual for the Cuestis to have water at this time of year and at these temperatures. All the better the surprise

30.12.2024 Rio dell‘Ambruseit Wolfgang ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Low Completed ✔ ➜
At this time of year practically no sun in the canyon; therefore a lot of ice or stones covered with an ice film,...so the bit slippery is already the lesser evil. Because of the constant "danger of slipping" it was exhausting, but once again it was fun

29.06.2024 Rio Cadramazzo GeorgB ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔ ➜
Beautiful, sunny rappel with a view of Fella. To get to the first belay you can now use a homemade chain anchor. After about 15m there is an old intermediate belay on two anchors, but it already looks pretty broken. Return via crossing the Fella and ascent to the already overgrown old road route

Water level in the uppermost part OK, then quickly dry. Only a little above the intermediate entrance does the water reappear. The water level at the bottom is then very entertaining. All jumps and slides are doable

Everything top notch. On the list of my top 10 canyons (not because of the fun factor, but because of the beauty and uniqueness). Perfect gorge for beginners. You don't have to do the jumps, just hike through.

24.06.2024 Rimonta Rok ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Low Completed ✔ ➜
Stands tip top except for the last 5 m rappel (there are only 3 rappels in total). The 5 m rappel is a bit dubious with 2 normal pitons connected with a rope, but ok. No comparison to the Maor, but still nice. You have to like walking in the streambed. Very lonely ambience.

Unfortunately again much more slippery than on various ascents last year. Stands ok so far; the tree in the narrow section caused problems this time when pulling off; it is recommended to use the anchor on the right at the exit for the last 3 m (then you can theoretically climb up again and release the rope from the tree).

Currently a lot of water in the canyon; but everything was still manageable. Since there was already a lot of water in the upper part, I assume that the "dam" at the drainage to the reservoir is "open" or damaged.

Lots of water at the moment and very cold. The canyon itself is very beautiful. Bolts could be better, but still ok. It is recommended to climb up to Lumiei on the right before the final ortographic section. All jumps are doable.

Sun, blue skies and almost 30° but still very cold water; a little more so thanks to the meltwater. At lower jumps, the pools are a bit gravel-covered but can be done well with the necessary caution
