For a quite little side trip, was surprised to find a few nice bolts in here.
Worthwhile little side trip if you have time going down Leale. We walked up after the jump into the massive pool, on the left side. It was probably about 200m of elevation roughly, and it took about 20min in the wet suits.
A few really nice abseils in this section! Only worthwhile though as a side trip to Leale.

Walked in from the top with a car shuttle - the way is difficult to find... I'd probably just walk up from the bottom (no car shuttle)
Really well bolted. Fresh cold water. Super fun canyon. Very similar water profile to the main gauge photograph, and it felt exciting, but not really difficult. The pitches look more intimidating than they really are.
We also did a side trip down the main canyon that joins from the left side before the final section.

V3, probably. A3 - very very stiff. More aquatic than most around Friuli. At the flow we had it'd be A4 at least, and if it was higher it'd push into A5...
The bolting is sufficient. Singles the whole way down though, not ideal.
The canyon itself is actually super nice, and much more interesting than we were expecting. It was certainly very very cold water. Perhaps the coldest in the region at this time of year.
Certainly worth a look. If this is A3, the bottom section must be super rowdy!

High side of low water level. Running clear. About 90min car to car (lower entry point).
Before the second creek comes in from the left side, we didn't get the rope out. All the slides were good to go!!
Immediately after the creek enters from the left, the next pitch could possibly be slid, but could be... uncomfortable!
Incredibly beautiful rock formations. A little dark at times. Super fun and easy canyon. Wouldn't underestimate it in higher flows - as there is no opportunity to escape. However, you could certainly push the levels if you knew the section well and were a strong swimmer!
Super good, definitely worth visiting. Loses half a star for moderate levels of rubbish at the start.

Lots of slides and jumps possible. The water is tainted brown, so inspection is mandatory... Full of commercial bolts and fixed ropes, which makes access quite easy.

It's quite pretty. Very well established. Fixed ropes the whole way down - we didn't take ours out of the bag.
The water was quite stained and the jumps didn't look that enticing.
Very simple walk in, and it's all over quite quickly.

Anchors in here were good - but many are bent, and a few are quite strange expansion bolt + chain with no hanger type jobs... Not immaculate...
The canyon is unreal. Probably nudging V4 and A4 realistically, especially with a better flow than today. The rock is mega grippy, but some of the anchors are probably more involved to access than V3 would suggest.
I suspect all the abseils could be jumped (you'd want to have a really really good look with goggles... and be an exceptionally firey individual)

I've attached the water level photo (from the main road) below.
This is seriously fun. It starts with the longest rapel (could be a slide on the left!?), then a few more little rapels - but soon the ropes go away, and it's jumps and slides the rest of the way!
Very easy in here to get the bag stuck in a little hydraulic at the bottom of the slide - or in the cave on the left below another slide! Be careful with it.
Definitely worth bringing a scuba mask to inspect pools, and a jumar to whip back up for another slide or jump!!
The slide immediately after the little bridge (exit) is also super fun.

Many possible cool jumps, a few slides. Super clean abseil. Beautifully sculpted rock.
Call the dam keeper before you go and when you finish.
It is committing for when you don't know it or the level, but once you know it's very very easy to bomb down quickly.

Really worthwhile section, with a handful of jumps, and some classy abseils. Really cool constricted section.
Would certainly be exciting with more water!!!
Quite a few single bolt rapels. Yuck
Not stupidly slippery, but certainly not grippy!!
Worth mentioning, one of the later 12m (or so) rapels can be jumped - however it is crucial to jump a long way out (from the anchors) to avoid hitting the bedrock underneath the whitewater. Probably much safer to jump from the left side...

Waiting to find a better canyon...
The early jumps and slides were all good for us today.
The last handful of long abseils are very slippery but smooth, so no real issue.
There are sufficient fixed ropes.

This canyon just needs another 50,000 years, and it'll be five stars.
Numerous tantalising slides that just didn't quite seem worth it today - so close to being okay, but worth the risk? For someone, for sure!!!
The anchoring in here is pretty random. There are a lot for singles, that should be doubles... I'm surprised they aren't given the quality of the canyon, and the location.
It is slippery. You only need a 60m rope.

Loads of cool jumps in here.
Surely somebody has fired up the curving slide in the very bottom section!?
The very last steep looking slide (right before the final pool) is surprisingly smooth.

You can do this section (and Inferiore below it) with 60m of rope. There are intermediary anchors to allow this.
Stacks of slides and jumps. Sweet as.

Long day in there. Over six hours - with the swimming and boulder navigation really hurting our time.
The anchors are all there, but they're only just okay. I was under the impression this was a popular canyon, and therefore would be maintained as such - that was incorrect to assume. Many many more bolts would be needed if it wasn't such amazingly grippy rock!!
There are a lottt of features missing in the topo. Numerous jumps and downclimbs that aren't highlighted. It's pretty rare to get an easy V2, V3 hundred metres. The demand for at least a little attention is nearly constant.
The Slide of Death was not as rowdy as I imagined. Its reputation must come from pure volume of people that *used to* go down in the old days where it was a guided section. However, if this is all you want, just enjoy Bodengo 2 and repeat the two awesome slides on that section a bunch!
Bodengo 3 has a lot of good value if you like to jump, but it is quite a grind.

Absolutely awesome. Awesome jumps, and awesome slides. Very beautiful clear cold water. 12mm glue in U bolts. At a normal flow, it's super straightforward.

Very unusual canyon. Unique rock features and many passages in complete darkness, closer to caving than canyoning.
For flows, the dam keepers house is on the true right side of the dam. The people in the refugio will also help you. The day before we went down there was a release.
Very grippy rock in most sections. Finding your way at times could be confusing, especially into the second section.
Don't bring a crappy headtorch!!

We entered at the dam, after following the metal railing down to it. The dam was nearly spilling, however the water flowing out was minimal, maybe 1m2.
This was the slipperiest canyon we have ever been down. All the rocks are covered in alge.
The anchors were adequate, however you would be stupid to go down without some material to replace a couple of helpful threads. At this flow, all the anchoring was sufficient. Some abseils have both dry and wet lines.
I think if it wasn't so slippery, there would have been numerous opportunities to jump. However, we were not very confident with the take-off spots given the lack of friction.

This is a truly pretty canyon, with great rock, slides, a jump or two, and heaps of abseils.
The canyon is a bit of a bolt graveyard unfortunately with numerous smashed anchors left to stain the canyon for generations. The anchors that survive are fine, but could do with new linking material. Obviously this canyon gets very very high and violent at times (hence the busted anchors). Overall could do with a big makeover with strong unlinked glue ins, and probably needs any fixed ropes to be replaced annually...
Super nice canyon to visit!

Slightly slippery, but improves as you get further down. The long boulder field in the middle takes some time, but the jumps and scenery are excellent.

We bailed out. The level looked fine, but made the third to fourth pitch on the topo too scary for us. We climbed back out the slab that forms the 6m slide at the start. Apparently the level was at, or above the normal commercial cut-off.

Moderately high level, on the drop though. Chilly water. Numerous loose- single expansion bolt anchors in questionable rock. Many of the pools below what appear to be slides are quite full of sand, and the odd sneaky rock. Put in is more like 820m and we took out at the bridge at 650m.
