Type
dam controlled
About
Classe III (IV). Friendlier continuation below the Sainte-Lucie-de-Tallano power-station restitution: bouncy grade 3 boulder rapids with the odd grade 4 through maquis-covered hills toward Sartene. Take out around the medieval Genoese bridge of Spin'a Cavallu or the main-road bridge below. Flows depend increasingly on turbine releases from the dam upstream, so it can be up when other rivers are low. Season: March-May; flows now partly dictated by the Rizzanese hydro plant Gauge reference: Check turbine release from the Rizzanese plant; visual at Spin'a Cavallu
