14.04.2024 Koppenbach 'Teufelsschlucht' Montie ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Low Completed ✔
Nice little canyon! Parking is better at 47.742, 12.991, there is an official parking space there (costs a little bit of money but doesn't annoy any people living there). Parking at the museum is probably fine on the days they are closed. The ascent is cool and short, but very steep. Lots of trees in the canyon on this day, some of them really rather annoying, which caused us to need at least 1.5 hours in the canyon instead of the 1 hour in the description. I can imagine it is doable in 1 hour if it is clean though. There are currently so many trees in the final open part, that it is easier to just go out on the right side after the canyon opens up. Anchors were ok for the most part.
06.04.2024 Pitzbach Montie ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 High Completed ✔
First pool is getting deeper again, can be jumped from the middle. Slide may be possible, the water level was too high to try it out. Not yet deep enough to jump from the top again. Second jump doable with bent knees. Some trees in the way after the winter. Anchor on the high rappel was loose, tightened it again. Other anchors are all fine. Rope at the tree-block is gone, new one should be installed. Downclimbing with a rope is easier and almost safer than rapelling here. Final jump is deep enough to jump.

Most pools still are not deep enough to jump. The big slide is slowly getting a bit deeper, but still only around hip-deep. Some newly fallen trees are in the way here and there, should be cleared away before the beginning of the commercial season. Zipline is still up.

Great tour, super well known so it gets a lot of visitors, but for a good reason. Anchors in great condition. Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXYedr7j62w

Beautiful canyon with a unique look due to the layered rock. Probably the most perfect (not the scariest or highest) slide in a very wide area. Some trash in the upper and lower areas. Apperently also gets some runoff from surrounding fields, which had recently been fertilized, creating a nice pool of fertilizer propped up against a few logs at the end of the canyon.

02.10.2023 Combra (Val Malvaglia) Montie ⭐ ★★★★★ 📖 ★★★ ⚓ ★★★ 💧 Normal Completed ✔
Very nice canyon with very cold water. Many options to jump and slide. Can get a bit difficult with more water. Not super beginner friendly. Video of our tour here: https://youtu.be/6Plvkp-l5Sw?si=so3AuazQgCCgJAsq

Super easy tour under normal water conditions. Great for whitewater practice during high water conditions. Lots of jumps, deep pools. Very open "canyon".

Such a great and beautiful tour that is way too short. A looooot of commercial groups in the canyon when we were there (saw at least 5 separate groups). If you don't go on the weekend days you probably avoid most of them. Video of our tour here: https://youtu.be/4kAq5IE1l0g?si=NjCJfZ6J7UGYH7q_

Very beautiful canyon! One piece of information that was missing form the description, which I would have liked to know beforehand, is that there is a (very small) siphon at which you have to dive underneath the rocks (unless you are a good climber, the bolts to climb up have been removed). There are a few other "almost-siphons" which are all unproblematic. The diving one is not really a problem either, but if you don't know you might be wondering where to go next! We were there in low-water conditions, because of which we experienced some bad smells in some pools. Unfortunately, an animal had died in the pool of the siphon, not a pleasant dive!

Nice tour, though unfortunately (almost) dry during the time we were there. Nice abseils, nice atmosphere, good fun. Video of the tour with all pitches here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU-r8EonryY

The lower part is, for my taste, way too commercialized. Steel ziplines and other stuff all over the place.

Lovely tour, highly recommend the ascent on the west side over Pra l'Oste, which is beautiful. You can actually start at the bridge instead of at the waterworks, which gives you a very nice jump or slide extra! Definitely some long stretches of walking / climbing over and through huge blocks. Quite tiring, but with beautiful parts in between. Video here: https://youtu.be/vPIG7f0U0kQ?si=IG_1BYtfCLmaaxcS

Great fun for those that like alpine canyons with high rappels! The ascent and the way back take some effort though. Anchors (usually old single bolts) were in pretty bad shape when we were there in 2020 and in 2019.
