This is a Beginners’ canyoning trip, as part of Boree Log – that means you’ll need to be signed up to Boree Log to join. This trip is limited to 4 people – you will need to have abseiled before and have above-average fitness.
Serendipity is a beautiful canyon within walking distance of our campsite at Cathedral Reserve. The day will start with a 30min walk-in, then about 5 or 6 abseils up to 15m and a few short swims. Once we reach the Wollangambe river at the end of the canyon, we will have lunch beside a great rock-jump spot. The walk out takes about 1.5hrs and is initially quite steep. We will arrive back at camp with plenty of time to relax before the party gets started.

I will organise all the group gear and if there’s something you don’t have we will try to borrow it from the club.
DISCLAIMER: This trip will be run as a fully-guided experience (akin to a paid day out with a canyoning company) as it will form part of a guiding course assessment. You will be asked to complete a medical form and participant agreement in advance (to be returned by email).
