Overview

Trip Code: BMBA

"Warami mittigar" - Hello friend. We welcome you to Dharug Country

"Biimbiigang" - Greetings. We invite you to Gundungurra Country

Overlooking the Megalong Valley and Narrow Neck plateau this adventure involves descending part way down a large cliff line (approx. 200 metres) of the upper Blue Mountains in a series of stages or ‘pitches’. This four pitch expedition boasts some exciting abseiling and interesting traverses as you straddle and then descend into the massive chasm that forms the second and third pitches. Half way into the valley - still a long way above the ground - you will follow a skyline traverse on narrow ledges and interesting rock features back to the top. An awesome experience that is suitable for beginners; but with extreme exposure to heights, make sure you ready yourself!

This adventure takes place on DHARUG and GUNDUNGURRA Country. We acknowledge their enduring connection with this Country, as they are the traditional custodians of this land, and we journey in respect of their Country.

Inclusions

  • Professional and passionate guides
  • All activity related equipment (helmets, harnesses and more)
  • An extensive array of safety equipment
  • Acknowledgement of Country in respect of the Traditional Custodians of this Land
  • National Parks fees
  • Transport from/to our office to the abseil

  • Transport to/from Katoomba
  • Items of a personal nature
  • Travel insurance

We believe our abseiling adventures are heaps of fun, but what goes down must come up! It’s important to us that you have the fitness and skills to enjoy your abseiling day. Our introductory to moderate abseiling adventures are for those with moderate level of fitness and good mobility. While abseiling down the cliff is not particularly physically demanding, once participants reach the bottom they need to walk back to the top. Abseiling experience is desirable but not essential. If you have any concerns about your suitability for this adventure, please contact our office.

Why travel with us

100% Satisfaction

On our adventures you’ll notice that we work hard to go above and beyond to deliver a service that exceeds your expectations. If part of your adventure doesn’t meet your expectations and you are not 100% satisfied with your experience let us know and we will fix it for you. And if you aren’t completely satisfied by our response, we will refund that part of your adventure. (Conditions Apply).

High Quality Services

Passionate, highly qualified and experienced guides; gourmet lunches prepared by Altitude Deli in Blackheath; quality equipment in good condition that are regularly inspected and exceed industry standards – with us you can expect a high quality Blue Mountains adventure.

Our Safety Record

We don’t cut corners on safety. Over and above our well-stocked and maintained first aid kits, we also carry extra safety gear such as bivvy bags and emergency sleeping bags; and our roping practices are designed to ensure the best outcome should a rescue or assist be required. You can be confident our guides are working hard to keep you safe.

No Hidden Extras

Our adventures are all inclusive. All adventures include licenses, equipment, professional guides and everything else you need for an action packed adventure. All you have to bring is suitable clothing, comfortable enclosed footwear, a water bottle and a camera to capture the day. And if you don’t have any of the necessary clothing we’ll happily provide you with the basics at no additional cost.

Diverse Range of Adventures

We offer more adventure locations in the Blue Mountains than anyone else. The canyons and climbs of the Blue Mountains are many and varied. Ever heard of Du Faurs Creek? Want to know what’s involved in Dalpura? Do the names ‘Bunny Buckets’ or ‘Dirty Rotten Pig’ sound weird, but you’re still intrigued? Keen to explore Dargan’s, Birrabang, or Breakfast Creek? If you are looking for something specific - just ask!
