Juggler Canyon and Grand Canyon Combo

Juggler is action packed with five very different abseils, interesting rock scrambles and stunning rainforest between steep canyon walls. The adventure kicks off with an easy refresher abseil before heading down some of the more exciting and challenging drops in the canyon. After the last abseil in Juggler, we make our way upstream above the Grand Canyon before making a different entrance to Grand canyon via an overhanging abseil. Followed by swimming, scrambling and wading, the beauty and serenity of this canyon will surprise you, with ferny glades and towering rock walls providing a spectacular setting. The walk out is via the historic Point Pilcher track with spectacular views into the Grose Valley and takes just over 45minutes to the top. A fantastic combination of the beauty and excitement available in Blue Mountains canyons, the Juggler and Grand Canyon combo is great for those with previous abseiling experience and who are above average in fitness. 

Equipment Provided

We will provide you with a backpack, wetsuit, waterproof bag, helmet, harness, carabiners and abseil descender. We also cover your National Parks and Wildlife Service park entry fee.  While we encourage all participants to bring their own weather-appropriate clothing (see below), we have spare warm clothing and rain jackets if needed.

Things to bring 

Comfortable clothes suited to the weather.  Katoomba is 1000m above sea level and you can expect cooler temperatures than in Sydney. 
As a general rule we recommend:

• Long sleeves and pants for sun and scratch protection
• Wool, synthetic and fleece fabrics (no cotton or denim)
• Closed shoes
• Sun hat, sunscreen and warm beanie
• Rain jacket
• Sneakers / sandshoes and woollen socks to wear in the canyon. These will get wet!
• Hair tie for those with long hair
• Swimming costume to wear under your wetsuit (it's great if you can be wearing this when you arrive for your trip)
• Personal medication (Ventolin/EpiPen etc.)
• Water bottle, at least 1.5 litres.

Recommended:

• Thermal underwear to wear under your wetsuit in cold conditions
• Camera or Smartphone.  The wet canyon environment is incredibly photogenic and we recommend bringing a waterproof camera.  We hire waterproof digital cameras and sell waterproof smartphone cases in the office.  Just ask your guide. 
• Second set of clothes, shoes and socks to leave in the office or van for the end of the day
• Plastic bag for wet items
