Description

You can pack a lot of action and a huge amount of fun into half a day within the Queenstown canyon. Suitable for first-timers and adventure seekers alike, this 4-hour adventure is a great option for groups and team building. Check in is a strict 15 minutes prior to departure from the Adventure Centre in Queenstown where you’ll meet the guides in the departure lounge. Here, guides share pre-trip safety information and check your suitability for the trip. Please advise of any medical, health or other safety-related information before the trip departs (note we have a strict 120kg weight limit). Then, it’s a 15-minute drive to the base to be fitted with canyoning gear. Descend through a beautiful, ancient beech forest to the start of the canyon and explore the area by zip line, abseiling (rappelling) waterfalls, slides, plunging into natural pools, floating down narrow passageways, and cascading down chutes – all in beautiful natural surroundings.  After the tour, it’s a short drive back to the base - using our changing rooms and hot showers, have a complimentary tea, coffee, or hot chocolate. YOU MUST CHECK IN 15 MINUTES PRIOR TO DEPARTURE - NON REFUNDABLE IF LATE. 120KG MAX. WEIGHT
