Resumen:
Among the canyons in the area, it has the easiest access. Nevertheless, it is no lacking in interest.
Acceso:
Downstream access: Going up Val Veddasca, cross the Italy–Switzerland border along Via Cantonale and, just before the village of Indemini, take a road that descends to the right (Stráda da G'ésa) following the sign for the church of San Bartolomeo. After two hairpin bends, keep descending straight ahead until the end of Via I Prèd, where there are some free parking spots before the dirt road begins (46°05'40.0"N 8°49'37.4"E). Upstream access: Return to Via Cantonale and continue up Val Veddasca to Monti Idacca. Just below the village (Via Indemini) there are some free parking spaces on the right (46°06'08.4"N 8°50'34.3"E).
Acceso (20 min):
From the Monti Idacca parking area, briefly continue uphill on the paved road until you find, on the right, the trail to Monti Sciaga and Alpe di Montoia. Pass the first two tributaries. At the junction, keep left and climb toward Alpe di Montoia untill reaching the main stream. Alternatively, keep right at the junction to skip the first 3 small waterfalls.
