Description
Make the most of your day with this self drive option for an action packed 3 hour canyoning adventure in the Gibbston Valley! Enjoy the thrill of natural waterslides, climbing through massive stone walls and navigating each section of the canyon with your Canyoning New Zealand expert guide. Test your limits by making the step over the edge on the first abseil of the day, and work your way down amongst the impressive power of the water as your canyoning experience continues.
This canyoning tour in the Gibbston Valley includes a 10 minute walk into the canyon, with up to 2 hours actually spent in your wetsuit. With all the equipment provided, it's a fantastic option for an introduction to canyoning which caters for non-swimmers (though you must be comfortable in water) and those with a lower level of fitness.
No canyoning experience is required to complete this tour, and you will be led at all times by an experienced canyoning guide who knows all about the Gibbston Valley and Queenstown canyoning scene.
This self drive option allows you to make the most of your time before or after your canyoning trip to explore everything else the Gibbston Valley has to offer. Check out the Gibbston Valley Winery, the local tavern and the stunning scenery of the Kawarau River.
