-
3BPetra LecciaUnknown flood
-
4B RPiscia di A SpusataUnknown flood
-

4B RPiscia in AlbaUnknown flood
-
n/aPoggioUnknown flood
-
3BPolischelluUnknown flood
-
n/aPurcaraccia
Purcaraccia's approach passes an eight to ten meter fault waterfall wedged between two boulders before the descent even begins, in a granite drainage popular enough that Quenza has repeatedly restricted access over crowding and accidents.
Quenza, Corse-du-Sud Unknown flood -
n/aRichiusa
The shortest canyon in this Corsican set, Richiusa drops 220 meters over a bit more than a kilometer outside Bocognano, capped by a 15 meter rappel.
Bocognano, Corse-du-Sud Unknown flood -
3CRudaUnknown flood

4BSalvaticaUnknown flood
-
n/aScopameneUnknown flood
-
n/aSulleoni
Sulleoni carries a single 70 meter rope down 220 meters of granite above the hamlet of Revinda, a short but steep drop for its length.
Unknown flood -
2CTavignanoUnknown flood
-
n/aTignoso
Tignoso strings 24 rappels across two separate narrows sections linked by a long march, five kilometers and twelve to sixteen hours in a remote setting best saved for high summer. Local guides are blunt that spring flow makes it dangerous.
Unknown flood -
3CTravuUnknown flood
-
4B RVacarecciuUnknown flood
-
n/aVacca
Vacca is Purcaraccia's short, mellow neighbor in the same Quenza drainage, about a hundred meters of drop over a kilometer, with most obstacles jumpable after the usual checks.
