Dargan’s Creek Canyon

Hey everyone!

So Louis and I (Xu Dong Feng, Ben is posting on my behalf) are going down to Dargan’s Creek Canyon on the Saturday 17^th of March. This is the PERFECT beginners canyon. There are no abseils, but there are a few pools and swims on the route. Short and sweet, you’ll leave Dargan’s creek with a newfound appreciation for all things wet, dark and slippery!

Louis will be driving up from Sydney on the day and can bring up to four people with him.  We’ll start the canyon in the afternoon around 1pm. We have plenty of time to sleep in and relax in the morning and potentially check out Dam Cliffs after (if you are signed up).

This is a horizontal canyon so we’ll be able to bring along a maximum 10 people including us.

What to expect!

Skill requirements?
NONE! This is a beginners introduction to canyoning and climbing. Think of it as a more interactive hike.

Gear you will need:
Drybag (waterproof bag to keep your clothes/camera/food dry)
Backpack that you don’t mind getting a bit wet and dirty
Lunch
Long wool socks
Enclosed shoes with GOOD grip. (Volleys are your friend)
At least 2L drinking water
Clothing you can get wet in (synthetics are good, cotton is a big NO)
Wetsuit (if you get cold easily)*
Old board shorts to wear over wetsuit
Towel
Change of clothes
Helmet*

* Can be borrowed from the club on the Saturday.

Facebook message me to join, we’ll get a chat going once numbers are confirmed. See you all soon!
