Itinerary
Start of Tour (6:30AM)
Pick up from your accommodation and your guide will sort the paperwork out.Safety First
Your guide will provide all the personal gear needed for the trip such as wetsuits, shoes, lifejacket, helmet, and harness.Ascend the Hill
Once you are ready, the next step is driving you up to the hill and the general information of the trip is given.Gear Up!
The next step is to start putting the canyoning gear on and training you before entering the wild canyon. All your belongings will be kept safely on the bus and will be waiting for you in a different location at the end of the day.First Abseil (8:30AM)
The first rockslide of the day is about 10 meters long in a sort of gap/rail landing in a shallow pool.The Deep
A narrow gap between a big rock and a cliff creates a perfect body shoot leading into a deep pool. It is usually necessary to hold your breath for about 5 to 8 seconds before reaching the water's surface again.Rooster Tail
A 20-metre waterfall cascade presents a sort of ramp at the end, propelling the water back up in the shape of a rooster's tail. It is hard but super fun to cross the river from right to left, accessing the slide area due to the powerful water pressure.The Handline
A couple of ropes placed on the wall lead to a 50-60 metre waterfall. Attach your harness safety lines on the handlines to avoid falls.Mimi Falls
This giant waterfall makes the water disappear as it falls and reappears back through a hole. This is the highest abseil of the day, just on the side of the drop.Lunch
Take a break for lunch and relax at the bottom of Mimi Falls.The Cave
This interesting rock formation is accessed by crawling through narrow passages that become bigger in the shape of a cave. There is a little waterfall and rockslide formation inside it.Dom's Slide
The biggest slide of the trip seems like it could break your body in two parts. However, it presents just a little impact, Dom’s slide is safe to go in the right water levels.Wang Falls
This place is one of the favorite abseils listed by people who have already experienced several different canyons. To access the 40 meters waterfall, you'll cross a natural rock formation bridge. The abseil is done in two stages. The first stage is about 12 meters ending in a small ledge where the rope is pulled down and placed back into the anchor points again. The second part of rappelling is nearly into the loud waterfall surrounded by high, wet and dark canyoning walls ending up in deep and stir water.End of Tour (5:00PM)
Return to your tour bus.
