Abseiling

Abseiling, or Rappelling as it is often called, is one of the most popular adventure sports in Australia. It is simply a method of descending a rope in a controlled and safe manner.


Canyoning

Canyoning is a popular and recognised sport in Australia, particularly in the soft sandstone canyons of the Blue Mountains and Wollemi regions. Narrow grooves and slots which have been formed in the sandstones are eroded due to rapid water movement over millions of years. While some canyons in the Blue Mountains and Wollemi National Parks are up to 20 mt wide, others are very narrow and may be less than 2 mt wide in places. Some canyons are well over 100 mt deep, receiving sunlight on the canyon floor for just a few minutes each day. 

Canyoning usually involves jumping into pools, wading and swimming, climbing and scrambling over log jams and abseiling through waterfalls.

Rock Climbing

Growing rapidly as a adventure sport, rock climbing has become quite popular. Little can match the challenge and sheer exhilaration that outdoor climbing provides. It is a safe sport as with modern gadgets   the climber is protected by a safety rope from above, held securely by your instructor.

Mountain Biking

This exhilarating outdoor adventure is a fantastic way to see the awesome and spectacular  Blue Mountains and Wollemi regions of Australia, just west of Sydney.
