canyoning
Oli and I will be running Upper Bowens North or South Canyon this Saturday.
Upper Bowens Canyons offers a fantastic mix of canyoning elements. You’ll encounter a series of abseils, some requiring careful rope management and refreshing swims through beautiful pools. The canyon’s narrow sections will test your agility, and the overall length of the trip demands a good level of fitness. The surrounding environment is breathtaking, with the classic Blue Mountains sandstone scenery creating a truly memorable experience. Please see the link below for more details and the map.
