Paddle and Abseil Day Trip

Melbourne

Overview

Two adventures in one day!

The fun starts when we meet you at our starting location and prepare you for a paddling adventure. Here you will be provided with all the necessary gear including a double kayak, paddles and life vests. We then set sail down the Yarra River and navigate our way down the Grade 2 rapids. Enjoy the peaceful surrounding bushlands, keep an eye out for local wildlife and bask in the sun while experiencing a true outdoor adventure.

Eventually we will reach Warandyte where our kayaking trip concludes. Here we will enjoy a hearty lunch and prepare for an afternoon of abseiling. The site we use is perfect for those who are beginners or novice abseilers.

You will be provided with all the equipment and our experienced guides will ensure you feel safe at all times. Under their instructions they will help you step over the edge and scale down the bushland cliffs.
