SUNDAY BL – Serendipity (Beginner/Intermediate) – Canyon

Serendipity canyon

Join Cindy and I (Oliver) on a great little canyon/chasm with a series of technical abseils, beautiful scenery and a great ending swim!

What you need to know? Expect a great day canyoning for around 8+ hrs round trip, a walk up the river at the end, and a scramble to exit.

It’s gonna be a fun day! Expect cold temperatures, wetsuits are a must.

Essential gear:

• Space blanket/emergency blanket (mandatory).
• Headlamp (mandatory) w/ batteries
• Lunch/snacks and water (1.5L) for 8 hrs of potential canyoning. Fueling yourselves is essential
• Spare dry clothes/thermals/jumper/beanie
• Dry bag to keep electronics/spare clothes warm.
• Appropriate clothing – no cotton – when wet it loses heat fast! Think hiking clothes with boardies/swim shorts to protect wetsuit from damage.
• Shoes with good grip and suitable for water – trainers with warm socks.

We will be walking off from Cathedral of Ferns Camping area down to begin the Canyon. Participants will leave directly from the canyon, so a balance of Cars/carpooling is essential to get everyone back to Sydney
