Description
You can pack a lot of action and a huge amount of fun into half a day within our Queenstown canyon. Suitable for first timers and adventure seekers alike, this 4-hour adventure is a great option for both groups and individuals.
You'll check-in and meet your guides at our shop (37 Camp Street) located in the centre of Queenstown, where guides will share some pre-trip safety information and check your suitability for the trip. All you need to bring with you is swimwear and a towel - we'll provide everything else! During check-in, please advise our staff of any medical, health or other safety-related information before the trip departs (please note we have a strict 120kg weight limit). Then, it’s a 15-minute drive to the base where we'll get you fitted into all the specialist equipment needed for the adventure, including a wetsuit, canyoning boots, helmet, buoyancy aid, and technical gear.
Descend through a beautiful, ancient beech forest to the start of the canyon where you'll explore the area by zip lining, abseiling (rappelling) or sliding off waterfalls, plunging into deep natural pools, floating down narrow passageways, and cascading down chutes, surrounded by dramatic rock formations and pristine waterways. Our guides will snap photos along the way which we'll send out for free after the trip.
After exiting the canyon, it’s a short drive back to our base where you'll have access to hot showers, changing rooms, and complimentary tea, coffee, or hot chocolate, before we drive you back into Queenstown.
