Itinerary:
Meet at 78 Beach Street, Queenstown at 9.00 am, where you'll be kitted out with all the best canyoning equipment.
Afterwards, you can either self-drive or take the courtesy shuttle to the canyon location. The drive there is a scenic 2 hour trip with plenty of coffee and toilet stops along the way.
Once you arrive, get dressed in your equipment, then take a 25 minute bush walk to the start of the canyon.
Before you jump in, you'll listen to a full safety briefing and demonstration from your guide.
Then, the adventure begins! You'll be in the canyon for 3-4 hours and will enjoy abseils of up to 30 metres. Get your heart racing as you zoom down natural water slides and experience epic climbs and jumps (optional).
Later, finish your day of action with a picnic-style lunch. You'll then head back through Wanaka to Queenstown. You'll return at approximately 5.00 pm.
You can bring your own waterproof camera or leave it to your guides. They'll take pictures of your whole experience and you can purchase them afterwards if you wish.
