The Experience
What your day looks like
Half an hour of walking through the Wollemi National Park takes you to the beginning of the canyon: a slot in the ground, barely one meter wide! Here you abseil into the canyon, with a pool of cool water awaiting you at the bottom, luckily it will only be ankle deep. After some wading, another short abseil, and a downclimb, you arrive at the first long abseil, this one situated next to a waterfall. It's here that the Canyon opens out into a beautiful rainforest gully until you reach the second and spectacular long abseil: a big drop into the dark chasm, sliding down between two Canyon walls, just 2 meters apart. The trip through the deep and dark Canyon is a fabulous and unique experience. A plentiful lunch surrounded by ancient tree ferns and towering rock formations allows some rest before the steep 1-hour exit. Established in 1989 we have taken over 100,000 people on adventures ranging from a 3-hour abseil session to multi-day snow and ice climbing courses. National Parks and Blue Mountains City Council fully insured and licensed us. We are the only company to offer accommodation packages. 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 of experience.
