Abseiling and Rock Climbing Adventure in the Blue Mountains

What do I bring?

Dress for the weather, wear running or hiking shoes and bring water and camera. For Canyoning bring running shoes to get wet, swimsuit and waterproof camera. If you don't have one we supply a waterproof camera free of charge. We also have helmets fitted with Go Pro mounts.

What do I need for winter canyoning?

With winter canyoning you need to wear old running shoes (they may get wet and muddy). Thick socks, ideally wool if you have them. Leggings and shorts or quick drying long pants and shorts. On top you want to have at least 4 layers, singlet, t-shirt, fleece and a jacket of some description. Bring 1.5 litres of water. We will provide back packs and all the technical equipment you require.

How exactly does the whole clothes thing work for summer canyoning?

When you arrive at the office you should be wearing your swimwear underneath your clothes. Have on your feet socks and shoes you can get wet. Wear either shorts or light long pants, have a t-shirt on that covers your shoulders and bring a jacket of some description (ideally a fleece top).

The first thing we do is try on a wet suit to make sure it fits. When we get to the canyon we get out of our clothes and into our wet suits. Our clothes go into a dry bag and canyon pack which is provided for you. At the end of the canyon we get out of your wet suit and back into your dry clothes.

Generally as we hike out we sweat and also some water comes off the back pack so you get a little wet on your back and legs. Therefore there is no point having a change of clothes until you are back at the office.

Do you have a left luggage area?

Yes! you can leave your luggage with us.

What's included?

Our full day trips include all technical equipment (abseil gear, wetsuit, waterproof backpack, climbing shoes), lunch and transport from our office. We also include a waterproof camera for the group.

Do I need to be fit?

You can get away with average fitness, but if you're unsure please ask.

Do you provide free car-parking?

Yes, free parking available.

Who are the guides?

Our guides are outdoor enthusiasts with a passion for taking others into our remote and beautiful environment. Minimum qualifications include Certificate 3 in Canyoning, First Aid and Bronze medallion.  Between them, they have hundreds of years experience.

Can non-swimmers participate in Canyoning?

Yes, we have had non-swimmers successfully complete canyoning in the past. The waterproof backpack and wetsuit that we supply acts as a buoyancy device. Always contact the office for advice prior to booking.
