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.

Hydrologie: pas de traduction disponible

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.
