Tour Itinerary
You will meet your guide at the Parking... 4 hours
You will meet your guide at the Parking lot there you will receive our mandatory safety briefing and get all the gear you will need for this adventure. After an approximately 45-minute hike from the parking lot to the canyon, you will participate in a rappel workshop where you will have the opportunity to practice some basic rope skills before entering the canyon. The upper section of the canyon can be relatively dry depending on the conditions, providing ample opportunity to practice rappelling and take in the scenery before getting wet in the lower section. Entering this last section, you’ll be rewarded with an incredible 18-meter waterfall and a massive sense of accomplishment. The trip will conclude with a series of fun slides and a hike back to the cars.
