7 June 2015

Hiked this canyon on 7 June 2015. As is mentioned in the main page, the main entrance is still blocked off. The guide in the entrance will direct you to the alternate location, as is mentioned on the main page.

Arrived at the alternate entrance and there is a local farmer who is charging 3 euro to park on his land. Fair enough. The trail is obvious and looked like it's regularly maintained. I did not get the impression this was a "secret trail" or anything like that. Once you get to the bottom, if you want to head to the Laghetti in the east end of the canyon, be prepared to swim down portions of the creek. My bag/supplies were not waterproofed, so we just stayed on the west end.

On the west end, there is a small pool to swim in and rocks to lay-out on. The trail back up is straight forward. I can't speak of coming up from the Laghetti side.

Definitely should be on your to-do list if you're in the area.
