High and Wild Canyoning

Overview

Any fears of heights or enclosed spaces will need to be thrust aside when you sign up for a High and Wild canyoning adventure. Depending on the season and trail you choose, you'll be trekking through the bush, venturing into subterranean gorges, abseiling through waterfalls and jumping into pristine freshwater pools — so prepare to get muddy in most scenarios.

In summer, you'll be donning a wetsuit for full-day journeys with refreshing dips, while the winter excursions focus on abseiling through towering rock formations and fern-laced canyons. Group tour prices (starting from $270 per person) include lunch, as well as expert instruction on using all equipment and a guide through the stunning Blue Mountains.
