Steinuschlüocht
verified
Ungraded
Unknown flood risk
Ried-Brig, VS
Ten plus rappels through gneiss carved into narrow, sculpted channels, best run in autumn.
Anchor bolts are sparse: the first descent party rappelled off tree trunks in spots, so bring drilling gear or expect to improvise. A large water intake sits above the canyon, and the original first descent notes call the resulting setup none too safe.
Logistics
| Permit | No permit required, per Ropewiki. A large water intake above the canyon reduces flow during capture periods. |
