2024-09-15: Entered at the confluence of the Marona. Water plentiful and very cold but not particularly problematic in progression.
Acceso: From the last leftward haipin bend before the village, we take the path towards Pogallo. The path first goes NNO for about 200m, then we turn right at the first fork, reaching the bridge over Pogallo (entry).
Recorrido: 3 rappels, lots of swimming, some slides and jumps. Caution: a longer toboggan cannot be slid down. The water drainage is overcome on the right-hand side.

Regreso: At the confluence with the Rio Grande (from the right), we climb up the latter - orographic. right bank - until we can get off on a path. Now we go back to Cicogna, where we can cut the road turns on a mule path.\n\nIf there is too much water in the Rio Grande for an ascent, turn downstream and then get off about 200m further down.

Acceso: We take the path towards Pogallo. The path first goes about 800m towards NNO, then at the second fork we follow the signpost Teggia, Pian Cavellona. A bridge takes us over the Pogallo. In the climb we pass the ruins of Teggia and finally reach the stream (entry).
Recorrido: 8-10 rappels, some slides and jumps. There are also longer running sections in between. We descend to the confluence with the Pogallo; as an alternative to the exit described here, you can also get out on the right before the confluence with the Pogallo at the remains of a small wall near the stream and climb up the slope to join the approach path at the top. Follow this to the left over the bridge and back to Cicogna. Finally, there is also the option of descending further in the Pogallo. The next bridge is the usual entry point for this canyon tour.

Acceso: From Orasso (700 m a.s.l.) take the footpath in the direction of Bugnago. Contrary to van Duin's description of the ascent, do not cross the right side stream of the Rio Orasso, but after about 15 minutes turn right at a fork onto a path that continues horizontally. What is striking about the fork is that all the signs are oriented to the main path, but none to the path going straight ahead, which we now follow. It leads us to a stone storehouse and seems to end here. Passing by the west side of the house, it continues in an inconspicuous form and crosses the orographic right slope of the Orasso, sloping slightly. Then it begins to descend, a "bad step" is provisionally secured with wire rope. We reach a streambed where the path beyond leads back up to a stone house. However, we follow the tracks that lead downhill to the right before the streambed, then cross the possibly dry streambed to continue steeply down into the riverbed of the Rio Orasso.
Recorrido: At the beginning attractive 25 m rappel into a cauldron, then again and again smaller bottlenecks; emergency exit almost always possible. Duin probably repeats in his book an approach description from a [[http://freeweb.supereva.com/euforione/Rio di Orasso/rio di orasso.htm] website that can no longer be accessed today. Since on the access description there is noted, it would probably not be optimal, we have searched for a better access - and found.

Comentario: Canyon Start
Acceso: On the RD: ascent to Bissoggio. At the highest point of the village, turn right towards Alpe Solia. Cross the Rovine tributary and continue to Alpe Solia di Fuori (alt. 753m). Continue slightly uphill for another 450 m to Alpe Solia di Dentro (alt. 795 m). Shortly after a fountain, descend to the right and after the 3rd house at a stone slab, descend steeply into the forest on a very inconspicuous path. The Raduno topographic view 2018 indicates that the descent can be made through an old canal if in doubt... 15 to 20 minutes descent. Approach RG: With the 4.4 km shuttle bus: From the bridge, follow the small road south, climb up to Cardezza, pass the hamlet and turn left towards Marzone. Follow the road until you reach a hiking sign below a magnificent chalet (Marzone: 50 min, 2 places). Or you can drive a little further and park near the prohibition sign (parking lot 200 m after the sign)... The path is therefore forbidden, but a quick drop-off should be "possible"... From Marzone you reach the highest house, via a small road you reach the helicopter drop zone. From there, follow the path that always runs horizontally and always turn left. After the first junction, the path is unmarked but obvious.
Recorrido: Long and challenging route aimed at trained teams.

Acceso: On the road a few hundred meters north, before reaching the hamlet of Cosa, the trail branches off to the right and climbs steeply to San Lorenzo. Pass the chapel on the left, then turn right at the next fork and reach the ruins of the hamlet of Mura. We have now reached the canyon rim and follow the red arrows on a partly thorny path down to the stone bridge over the stream.
Recorrido: At the beginning it is first necessary to overcome a stone chaos. Then follow 2 rappels to the mouth of the left side stream Focia. Now begins a constant alternation of rappels, jumps, slides and of course downclimbing. Technically demanding is then a handrail on the steep rock to avoid a descent in the beam at C 25. After a few narrow passages, you finally rope into the swimming pool of the village of Quarata.

Acceso: In the village, walk in front of the church, before the short staircase turn right underneath a row of houses in the direction of the fields. Behind the house, briefly turn left and then soon right again across the meadow into the northeast corner of the cultivated fields. Here we find a wayside shrine and just behind it the beginning of a clear path. After passing the wayside shrine, we go downhill in switchbacks. We ignore the first path branching off in a serpentine, our path branches off to the left about 130m before reaching the bridge (stone man). Ascend about 10hm into a small saddle, then descend straight into the shallow valley on the other side. We soon reach a small house on the canyon rim. Here we now descend (yellow markers) to the bottom of the gorge - handrails are provided in sections.\n\Man can also ascend from the lower parking lot to the entry. The path is registered in the OSM but should be difficult to find.
Recorrido: * Short downclimb * 18m rappel from chain on the right (can be jumped after 4m, narrow but deep pool) * 5min downclimb * 12m rappel or jump * 28m rappel from chain right. You can also rappel two meters in advance through a crevice into the dome behind the waterfall. If there is a lot of water, however, it can be difficult to pass under the waterfall. * 50m swim in a great atmosphere * 15m rappel from chain on the right, can also be jumped * 18m rappel from the chain on the left * 15m rappel from the chain on the top left This is followed by another longer swim through the last pool, which is bordered by a dam. Climb up the left side of the dam over iron pins and then rappel 8m from two anchors on the right.

Acceso: Coming from the south on the SS33, we drive past Domodossola and take the exit to the north of this town. From here we head east and then cross the bridge over the Isorno to the orographic left bank of the river. Here we continue upstream to the exit of the road (P2 - parking exit). The last 3.5 km are on a bumpy sand road. Take the second car back across the Isorno and then up to Altoggio. Here we park either in the large square at the entrance to the village or near the church. See approach and relocation sketch in photo gallery.
Regreso: After the last rappel and the large pool, we climb down over the small dam and exit about 50m to the left via an overgrown forest road. In 2017 there were dozens of beehives in the exit area, so be careful.

Acceso: If you switch the ascent of the Mondelli med. before, the access is as described there and instead of the exit at the bridge you continue the tour in the lower part. However, if you want to make the entry to the lower part directly, follow the signs "Stabioli, Macugnaga" and you will reach the bridge where the exit from the middle part of the Mondelli is made.
Recorrido: 14-15 rappels in a partly quite narrow and watery descent. At the double step above the large block, a continuous rappel over 60m should be more pleasant than using the transfer. In 2017, a dam with water drainage was built after the first 6 abseiling points, which removes about 3/4 of the water. This has made the lower part of the canyon much easier. At the dam, you can exit to the right (cairns and unclear path). At the last waterfall, make absolutely sure that there is no knot above the rope protection.

Comentario: Parkplatz vor Dorf
Acceso: We leave the SS 33 (Gravellona - Domodossola), which runs up the Ossola valley, via the Piedimulera exit and head west on the SS549 into the Val d'Anza towards Macugnaga. After 20.5 km (from the SS33 exit), you pass through the village of Ceppo Morelli. 2.2 km further on, the road turns right up to the village of Mondelli. However, we continue on the SS549 for another 850 m and park our car for the exit at the bridge over the Rio Mondelli (small cars only). There is a fixed rope on the orographic right for the exit from the stream onto the bridge. Normal sized cars drive about 400m further through the tunnel and park in the large parking lot. Then drive back and left up to the village of Mondelli (1190 m above sea level). At the exit of the road, we park the upper car in the parking lot in front of the village.
Regreso: Only a few steps to the car if you have parked orographically on the left. Otherwise approx. 400m through the tunnel back to the car.

2025-08-23: Very nice parts. The first long rappel (2nd rappel) is almost 60m. Anchors at the belays are made of chain links (see photos). But all still look good (nut was sometimes to tighten) and the rope (9mm)...

Comentario: Canyon Start 1540m
Acceso: First take the same hiking trail as for the entry to Mondelli 2 (intermedio), but at the fork at the "Cascata" signs, continue right towards Alpe Corteveccio. Approximately at the highest house in Corteveccio, keep left and cross the open area on a small path. The path runs over a small, steep ridge past grazing cattle. Cross a short marshy area and enter the open streambed of the Rio Mondelli at approx. 1540m.
Recorrido: Pretty much at the start, an open diagonal rappel about 50m long at the start, where we didn't find an intermediate belay. A few aquatic rappels and a perfect slide follow before you come to the last rappel via a huge garnit slab with washouts, from which you can see the bridge at the entry of Mondelli 2.

Acceso: From the parking lot in front of the electricity house, walk back to the bus stop. Directly next to the bus stop, follow the wide access road that leads past the abandoned house. The road quickly becomes an (unmarked) path, which you follow over a small bridge to the mountain road. Follow the road only briefly (approx. 50 m) until you find the path on the left again. This leads through the forest (next to the road) up to the small village of Calasca. When you reach the church, you can already see the B00 Calasca Fermata Bus trail marker next to the stone fountain. At the junction with the other mountain road, follow the hiking trail to the left, which soon leads over the Rio Val Bianca and into the village of Barzona. (On the ascent path, you can already look into the canyon (or get in or out). Before the village, follow the road down to the small bridge/chapel. (Entry at 650m)
Recorrido: The Rio Val Bianca is a very beautiful, short, open rappel canyon with mostly little water. If you divide the canyon into 2 halves, you have a walk and downclimb at the beginning, followed by possible slides and short abseils in the watercourse. In a narrow chute, the water pressure in the intermediate basin can be uncomfortable. The second, more vertical part of the canyon begins at the point where you have the best view of the Anzasca Valley. Here a 100m cascade leads into the valley (30m, 20m and 45m). At the 30m abseil point, you get a powerful shower before reaching the beautiful, deep pool (after a check, the last part is slippery). This is followed by an exposed one, where you rappel about 20m to the right to the last intermediate rappel. The last 45m abseil is the highest. Caution: when pulling off the last 45m abseil, the ropes can easily get jammed in the boulders below.

Comentario: Ausstiegsparkplatz bei kleinen Kraftwerk
Acceso: From Domodossola on the 549 into the Valle Anzasca valley. After approx. 35min you will come to a small pizzeria "C'era una volta" in Calasca Castiglione on the right (recommended; simple and good). From here it is exactly 1.3km to the parking exit of the Bianca. Do not park your car at the bus stop, but after the bridge on the gravel parking place on the right at the E-Werk house. A little tip: to avoid having to carry heavy rucksacks up, you can deposit them at the entry beforehand. To do this, take the turn-off to the right to Calasca approx. 50 m before the bus stop. After several hairpin bends, there is a turn-off to the left to Barzona. Follow the road to the bridge (entry at 650m). After depositing the car, park at the bottom and walk up.
Regreso: After the last abseiling point, leave the canyon on the right-hand side (525m). First over large boulders through an iron grid (private). Cross the garden as unnoticed as possible without losing much height. You will soon reach the electricity house (parking lot).

Acceso: The access paths are well marked on the information board at the exit. Caution on many maps (including OSM) as of 2023 paths are poorly or incorrectly marked; those on the board fit well and the access routes are currently also well signposted. Access upper part: Follow the path or the signs until you reach the Alpe Briga houses (fountain to fill up with water). Follow the path back into the forest; after a few minutes a path branches off to the left. Mostly marked with blue dots from here. Alternatively (earlier) after Alpe Briga you will see a large conspicuous tree with a large stone Standing by the tree, you will see another stone towards the canyon on the lower right at the meadows/ bushes crossing. A path begins here. Both options are more or less visible; in any case you have to go down to the water catchment. This is the start of the superiore section. There are still a few worthwhile rappels further up - a suitable access will be worked out by the locals in 2025. Access superiore approx. 1h30 min Entry at the water drainage Access interm approx. 40 min (signs follow) Access inferiore approx. 10 min (signs follow)
Recorrido: For the upper part, downclimb from the dam on the left for about 1 minute to the first belaystation. Great tour in the upper part, which has now been well renovated. Description from intermedio: The descent begins with the entrance to a relatively narrow chute. This is followed by 11 rappels to the exit after this sporty part (810m altitude). In the lower part another 5 rappels in open terrain. Exit to the right before the road bridge (720m altitude). The Lasino is an open rappel canyon with mostly little water. However, this should not mean that the technical passages, especially in the intermedio, should be underestimated. The canyon is very well equipped and there are plenty of sticky/drill hooks for the rope railing to reach exposed belays. Once you arrive at the entry of the Intermedio, you immediately start with a 30m abseil. This is followed by the next rappel. The highest point (50m) is in the middle of the Lasino intermedio (the belay can be reached by pulling off the rope traverse on the left side), after the high abseil there is a small step (approx. 10m), then a fun slide. This is followed by a cascade of 2x20m before a huge boulder blocks the way. Here you will find a small slip-through with bolts to overcome the slippery 3m. After this, the canyon becomes more open and less technically demanding. This is where the lower section (Lasino inferiore) begins. This is followed by several rappels into beautiful shimmering green pools with another casual slide towards the exit. After the slide there is a small rappel, a short downclimb/walking passage and the 30m final rappel (due to thorn bushes it is better to rappel in the water!) The tour ends before the stone bridge/road bridge at 730m.

Follow it to a water drainage where you enter the Antolina (downclimb the ladder on the right).
Recorrido: The canyon gradually becomes deeper and narrower until it exits with a 55m waterfall. The water falls down in a chute that is so narrow that you cannot see it from further out. Before the high bridge, there is an exit on the right up to the road. Slippery terrain.

When the canyon becomes visible, there are some parts that cross the steep forest. Eventually you reach a very exposed rocky outcrop at a height of about 180 m, from which you can you can reach the canyon with abseiling equipment.
Recorrido: A difficult and challenging alpine canyon characterized by a very long corridor with numerous abseiling points, almost all of which are under waterfalls, with the canyon walls being less than one metre deep in many places. There is no escape route for the first 220 meters. The second part offers more breathing space and a few more escape routes, but is by no means to be underestimated. The exploratory routes are obviously the only ones you should use, and although they are in sheltered places, they are very risky given the nature of the canyon. Entry at 1170 HM is 25 rappels. ATTENTION: On weekdays there can be loud, rather disturbing disturbing explosions from the nearby quarry, which could be dangerous during the last rappel. Avoid on weekdays or exit to the left before the last rappel.

Acceso: Cross the bridge over the Toce before the parking lot and continue left until you reach the road to the mine, which you follow uphill to the right. As soon as you reach the first buildings of the mine, turn left onto a marked path (red color) that leads up into the forest. After a long, steep climb, the path turns sharply to the right and runs horizontally over a rocky outcrop until you cross a stream. The path continues semi-horizontally until it begins to ascend significantly. At this point, from which you can already see the valley of the main gorge, you leave the path and continue horizontally on a ledge with some exposed parts until you reach the riverbed. The first rocky slope must be climbed down.
Recorrido: CAUTION: On working days there may be strong explosions in the nearby mine, which are disturbing but not dangerous.

Acceso: First, walk up the hill for a while and pass between a few houses (fountain on the left). We follow the signpost "Ponte Alpe Baim" on a path in a horizontal northerly direction. After a while we come to a tree trunk with large lettering. Here the main path goes down to the right to the bridge (1100) - lower access (time saving compared to the upper access is a good 1 hour). The path to the upper entry goes left here and is marked with red markings. Follow them past a ruined house to the stream. Middle entry: From the church, follow the forest path downhill until you reach the power station. Pass between the two buildings and descend behind the building on the right onto the tube. Follow the tube until you can descend to the right to the streambed after the first tunnel. (Duration 20min)
Recorrido: Long and great descent with slides, possible jumps, bottlenecks and pools flooded with sun (if the sun shines). At the water drainage you can get out if necessary, if the water flow seems too strong for the following bottlenecks. If we also want to hook the lower part, we have to carry a 60m rope in addition to 2x30m rope.

Acceso: From Domodossola, head west into the Bogna Valley in the direction of Fonti. After approx. 7 km you pass a long bridge from which you can see the last cascades of the Variola. 850 m further on, the road to Pioi goes off to the left. Park your car here. If you want to get out before the passage with the 68 m rappel and longer walking distance (recommended, as the last part is not very rewarding and then 2x30 m of rope are enough for a highest rappel of not quite 25 m), park the lower car 570 m further on the access road at the entrance to Fonti, just before the bridge over the Bogna. Immediately after the bridge, the hiking trail from Monsignore, on which we will return, is on the right. In the second car, continue through the village of Fonti and then take the winding road uphill via San Lorenzo, Graniga and Pianzola. After a total of 8.7 km (counted from the lower car at the road junction to Pioi), we come to a 90° left-hand bend to some houses scattered on the slope (1290 m above sea level). Here you can see a post with signposts. We park the second car nearby. If you only want to walk the part after the water drainage, turn off in the direction of Mulera and park behind the small church.

Acceso: Follow the hiking trail and soon cross the Rio Rasiga. You then reach the small hamlet of Monsignore. Cross it and continue right towards Monteossolano until you come to a beautiful old bridge over the Variola. This is the entry point. If you only have one car available, you can walk 400 m from the bridge at the exit on the road, then turn right at an acute angle and enter the village of Messasca. From here, a somewhat overgrown path leads uphill in a northerly direction. Follow this to the path coming from Bognanco and walk along it to the right to the old stone bridge.
Recorrido: After the first rappel under the bridge follows an entertaining descent, which culminates in a 35 m - chute with a long pool. Towards the exit some nice slides and jumps. Since Aug. 2010 the ascent of the Variola inferiore was forbidden, because in the course of a controlled water supply there was an accident with 2 deaths. Although an ascent is now allowed again (see above), the Variola superiore remains the most attractive alternative.

After the bridge over Bogna (view of the last waterfall), walk up the right path for 160 m until you reach a stone bench. Climb straight up into the forest on a barely recognizable path without reaching the canyon too soon (so climb slightly to the right). You will come to a building from which a better path leads diagonally to the left up to the dam (Brise Vague), the starting point of the canyon. From the parking lot above, take a path in front of the oratory towards the stream and then descend as best you can along the torrent to the dam.
Recorrido: 8 abseils from 3 to 32 m; the two biggest waterfalls are beautiful and a bit wet. MC possible to reach the belays (useful for beginners), only the last C32 (with 1 intermediate point) is obligatory and a bit airy...

Acceso: Go up the steep road, pass the small hydroelectric power station and the level crossing and reach the hamlet of Dalovio. Continue to the village of Ratto and follow the road, which is now unpaved. After a short series of hairpin bends, just after a fountain, a wide path leads into the forest and then past the first small aqueduct hut. The path continues halfway up, approaches the stream and passes more aqueduct huts. At the third, you will see the water supply at the bottom of the stream, which marks the starting point of the descent.
Recorrido: Nice "stress-free" canyon, not deep but still well cut into the rock. It doesn't compare to the more adrenaline-filled canyons in the area, but it is continuous and quite entertaining. There may be several logs at the beginning of the season. There is also a short upper part (3-4 rappels) above the water intake at the starting point. This part has a natural water flow that can be quite high at the beginning of the season. Very easy anchors.

Regreso: Once you reach the confluence with the Melezzo, climb up to the left through the forest on barely recognizable paths to reach the car. It is possible to skip the last, less interesting part by getting out shortly after the last narrow part, near the railroad bridge and just before the last (and highest) anchor. Turn left into the forest and follow the barely recognizable paths.

Acceso: From Masera, take the SS 337 in the direction of Locarno up the Val Vigezzo. Shortly after the junction for Coimo, on the left, near a house/bar (with parking lot), follow a steep road on the right that descends to the Melezzo stream and leads to the village of Dalovio. After about 200 meters you cross the bridge and reach a clearing in front of a trout farm where you can park your car. From this point, the road is only accessible to local residents.

Acceso: From the parking lot, follow the dirt road that descends and crosses the Rio Margologio over a concrete bridge. After the bridge, continue uphill until you reach some electricity pylons in an open area. Leave the road here and take a path to the right that quickly leads to the small railroad tracks. Cross the tracks (watch out for trains!) and follow the path through the forest until you reach some ruins. Pass these on the left-hand side. The path now becomes a comfortable mule track. After a good stretch uphill, pass a crossroads and keep left (the path on the right leads down to the stream, intermediate exit). At the crossroads, when the path flattens out, take the steeper and shorter path on the right (both paths lead to lErta) to reach the meadows of l'Erta at 1050 m. There is a signpost to the right of the highest huts. Take the only path on the right, which is not marked with arrows and leads flat to Rio Margologio (from here 15-20).
Recorrido: A first large third with steep waterfalls in an open environment. This is followed by the small, beautiful middle third. At the exit, the stream opens up again into a less attractive part. You come to a water extraction point with a rope. Descend the following C12, making the best possible use of the iron bars provided. From this point, it is very easy to exit via the right bank and its good path, which quickly leads to the bridge you took on the way there. Otherwise, the descent continues with 4 waterfalls, 2 of which (the Vrille and the last C22) are beautiful ... The canyon is long and slippery and requires a total of 7 to 8 hours of effort. Most of the belays are still equipped with the original equipment, i.e. 2 bolts + chain. It is therefore essential to have at least one thin rope and small carabiners with you. Make sure that the rope walks well through the chain links as it can easily get jammed.

Regreso: During the descent, you will pass a wooden bridge, followed by the last three abseils. Follow the riverbed for about 150 m and then turn right into the forest as quickly as possible, following a faint path that descends slightly beside the stream. The path then flattens out and becomes more visible, moving away from the riverbed and eventually reaching the railroad track near the bridge. Follow the tracks to the right to rejoin the access path. If you see the bridge above you, you have descended too far. Alternatively, you can follow the riverbed to the road bridge (not recommended).

Acceso: Follow the small road and shortly afterwards you will reach the meadows of Alpe Briasca. Keep to the right and climb up to the last houses on the right. There is a fountain a few meters behind the last house. From there, it is best to climb diagonally uphill (uncomfortable descent...) down to the streambed.
Recorrido: Beautiful torrent with some nice, deep passages, a few jumps and slides. Similar to its neighbor, the Rio Margologio, but more irregular. Retrieving the ropes is sometimes difficult. Very slippery rock. Equipped with "small French-style chains".

Acceso: Drive down the valley: Leave the A26 at Domodossola and continue on the SS33 del Sempione. Take the Masera exit and continue on the one-way road. Turn right at the crossroads and cross the railroad line. Continue for about 2 km and turn left towards Trontano. Drive through the village and continue to the bridge over the stream. Park in the parking lot immediately in front of it. Access uphill: Continue after the bridge and turn right at the first junction. Cross the railroad line and turn right again shortly afterwards. Follow the small road that winds uphill to a significant widening at the level of a small chapel where you can park your car. The road is narrow, without guard rails and turns into a dirt track in places. Approach without shuttle: The approach without shuttle is possible via the road, facilitated by a marked path that shortens the long bends of the road (1 hour to Alpe Briasca).
Regreso: When you reach a dam blocking the stream, rappel one last time and shortly afterwards climb back up in the forest on the right until you find a path that leads down to the road and your car.

From here, always following the path, you enter the forest again and then descend to the stream.

Acceso: After the bridge, descend to the right side of the river.
Recorrido: About 26 abseils. Above, after a first hurdle, the steep C26 begins. This first part is a bit steep and narrow, but offers beautiful parts. Cross a path (approx. 500 m altitude), after which it becomes a little more difficult. Then there are beautiful waterfalls again. Then the old bridge, below which are two magnificent waterfalls with deep pools. Then the large pool, very popular with the locals, marks a classic exit (hanging tube). This is followed by a C16, another one to go around on the right and then the final of about 18 meters. Be careful through the passage in the flood protection wall when the current is strong. Very good equipment. Exit options after the 9th and 19th anchors: the road up to Colloro is often nearby. In the last part, before the bridge on the left bank, then at the bridge and afterwards, it is possible to get off at almost every anchor. "Ponte Express": is often practiced, especially by professionals from the area. From the old bridge, walk along the left bank for a few minutes to an access point about 3-4 m high, equipped with a fixed rope and rungs; some waterfalls before the bridge, then the T5 under the bridge. The exit is at the large waterhole, clearly visible from above. Very short, but very beautiful, a real highlight... It is best to park the car in the hairpin bend on the left 1.3 km after leaving the village. From this hairpin bend you can reach the old bridge in 5 minutes (signs).
