About this tour
An 8-hour canyoning and abseiling adventure in Juggler Canyon, Blue Mountains, requiring no prior experience. You'll descend waterfalls, navigate rock formations, and learn rope work from a professional guide. The route offers genuine difficulty without extreme technicality, and a gourmet lunch—chosen from a menu of sandwiches including vegan and vegetarian options—is included. Suited to anyone with solid fitness and no fear of heights, minimum age 14.
Highlights
- Waterfall abseiling in accessible Blue Mountains canyon
- Professional instruction from start; no experience needed
- Gourmet lunch with 10+ menu choices, including vegan options
- All safety gear, ropes, and harnesses provided
- National Park fees included in price

What to expect
You'll meet your guide and receive a full safety briefing covering rope techniques, harness use, and canyon navigation. The group then enters Juggler Canyon, where you'll abseil down waterfalls, walk through water-carved sections, and scramble over rocks. Guides teach you hands-on as you go, managing rope systems and anchors at each pitch.
Midway through, you'll break for a seated gourmet lunch (your pre-selected sandwich, eaten in the canyon). The final section mirrors the first half—more abseiling, water crossings, and rock work—before exiting back to the trailhead. Total time on rock and rope is roughly 5–6 hours; logistics and transport to/from the canyon add the remaining duration.
