Easy access and exit. Pretty canyon, making your way down a limestone chaos in a deep gorge. All but the final rappel was be climbed round. Water doubles near the end due to a re-surgence, followed by a flat but narrow slot. Anchors in good condition, many require handline approaches.

The water level you see at the bottom is not what you get during the rappels. Once the rappels are finished, a major resurgence doubles the water flow. You do still need to traverse a final narrow section with this higher water.
