Highlights
- High and Wild - The adventure begins with a modest 5-meter descent. For those with prior experience, this serves as a refresher, and for newcomers, it’s an introduction to the abseiling technique. Next, we move on to a series of 15-meter descents, which you can repeat a few times.
Guided step by step by your instructor, you’ll then tackle our exhilarating 30-meter overhang descent.
We’ll pause for our renowned lunch around noon.
Afterward, we make our way to the Grose Valley, located to the north of Katoomba. A brief hike leads to the first of five abseils, with heights reaching up to 20 meters. The canyon is both narrow and dramatically steep!
A scenic 45-minute trek then returns us to our vehicle.

What a high and wild adventure! - What a fun and fantastic first experience abseiling! This is the perfect tour for beginners since no experience is required and the guides will teach you all you need to know to set you up for success. Zol and Brian were excellent, patient, and knowledgable guides who made sure everyone in the group was safe and felt comfortable throughout the whole tour. The views throughout the tour were immaculate. The sandwiches provided during lunch were delicious! We had a great group as well during our adventure, which made the day even better.
If you're debating on whether to do this tour or the half day abseiling adventure, I highly recommend this one since you'll be able to abseil in Juggler Canyon with the beautiful forest landscape.

Novice canyoning and Abseiling adventure - What an amazing experience, can’t recommend this tour enough. We stayed at the YHA and did the tour with High and Wild I’m almost 50, and our kids 18,17,14 had the best time, weather wasn’t very nice, but this absolutely added to the whole experience, don’t feel like you can’t do these sorts of things in the summer months only, the cloud, must and rain just added to the day. The food supplied for lunch was very tasty, and the way the whole day was organised just worked really well, our guides Ben and Micha were fantastic, knowledgeable and very experienced. It is rare I feel like these sorts of experience’s offer good value for money, but absolutely feel this one did! Thanks so much, our family will have these memories for ever.

A fantastic adventure with the great team at High and Wild. Recommended for all (I'm in my early 60's) - We had an amazing time. We felt very safe with our guides Zoltan and Carly (Karly?). They were extremely helpful and positive.
They were ably supported by a very enthusiastic work experience lad who added to the enjoyment. We shared the trip with a lovely family of four and got on famously!
We were taken to two different locations, each with their own challenges. Everyone got through unscathed. Because conditions changed we also got to use a flying fox and went spelunking!
We got back late in the dark. The walk back up was tough going but worth it for the experience going down.
I'm in my early 60's and quite fit and had no problems. I'd recommend High and Wild and this particular adventure to everyone.
Thank you for a great day.

Awesome Abseiling Experience - Did the abseiling at Mt York Lookout and had an awesome day with our guides Carly and Zolton. They were super friendly and accommodating and gave great variety of experiences based on people’s abilities. Will definitely be coming back to do the canyoning day soon if it’s even half as good as the abseiling.

Beautiful spots for abseiling - Although we needed to switch to that tour due to cold weather, it was a perfect experience. The last abseiling was the best and in general the tour is easily manageable for moderate sporty people!
Guides also were patient and friendly!

Canyoning and abseiling - It was a cool experience! The only thing I didn't really liked was the fact that we drove to a spot to do abseiling and just walk to the same spot and move on to the next instead of doing like a route along different tracks as I've done in previous experiences. The canyoning was the best and the 30m free abseiling was pretty cool as well. Also I was lucky to be in a 5 people group. I would try not to be more than that, otherwise is too much time waiting (preferably 4 max.)
