About
Experience canyoning – walk, scramble, wade, swim and paddle your way down the Wollangambe River. This takes some effort but has rich rewards. Wetsuits and lilos are provided as the water is cool and you’re in it a long time. Float on the lilo through long sections where the canyon walls close right in to deep water. The exit track has a 3 m climb holding onto tree roots and a knotted rope, but this is done with a harness and top rope for extra security.
