Not for the fainthearted this one! Canyoning is a white water ride through gorges that involves running down wet slabs of rock, big jumps into pools of water, scrambling up rocks and swimming through rapids. A half days canyoning is a lot of fun! Canyoning is usually done in areas of extraordinary natural beauty and provides a unique and challenging experience. Highly recommended.
Experience Content
Your experience will start at the centre where you will meet your group and instructors. You will be given a safety & introductory briefing before being issued with your kit which includes wet suit, neoprene jacket / gloves / socks, buoyancy aid and helmet. It is then time to head to the gorge! The next several hours will be full of adrenalin as you swim through rapids, jump off cliffs, scramble up rocks and navigate huge waterfalls, instructors will be ever present to ensure everyone is safe. At the end of the session you will return to the centre. As an added bonus at our Snowdonia location you will also get the chance to take on the "Flying Fox" Zip Line.
