Macquarie Pass Canyon (Clovers Fall) for beginner


Date/Time
Date(s) - Saturday 16 March, 2024
9:00 am - 3:00 pm

abseiling


Macquarie Rivulet, is largely a scenic waterfall abseiling trip, though there are a couple of short slot-like sections.

Macquarie Pass is an enjoyable day out. There is a reasonable amount of getting wet, though in the middle of summer, the water is not that cold since the canyon is near the coast.
