Fahrni bei Thun, BE
One of the forgotten canyons in an unusual rock for canyoning in the Alps. This rather flat valley, has a beautiful section of about 5 rappels that can have backflow, where it is advisable to use the trees to get around the dangerous pools in case of high water.
Ropewiki rates it technical 3, aquatic a4, vertical v3, commitment IV, cut in conglomerate. Figure a 15 to 20 minute approach, 3 to 4 hours of rappels, and a 250m climb back out.
