[TRIP FULL] SATURDAY BL – WHUNGEE WHEENGEE – Intermediate Canyon

Hey all, come join Mali and I (Daniel) in the best canyon at Mount Wilson! Expect cold water, scrambling, abseiling and swimming through a dark narrow slot. Whungee Wheengee also has a few ‘duck unders’ where you need to swim underneath an obstacle to progress through the canyon, these are a bit scary but a lot of fun!! Oh and there are also glow worms. This canyon leaves and returns to the campground by foot, no cars needed!

The full canyon notes can be found here: https://ozultimate.com/canyoning/track_notes/whungee_wheengee.htm

Please write down in the comments your canyoning/abseiling experience (it’s ok to have none) and your favourite place to go swimming.
