MEET POINT & ADVENTURE TIMELINE
MEET POINT: We meet in the small country town of Cave, on State Highway 8 between Timaru and Lake Tekapo.
From here, we'll convoy together to the nearby Mt Nimrod Reserve, where you'll get geared up.
You'll also meet Graham, the local landowner, who will shuttle us in his 4WD through beautiful rolling farmland and across private property, taking us right to the water's edge. It makes for a relaxed start to the day and means less hiking and more time exploring the canyon.
Before entering the canyon, we'll provide a comprehensive safety briefing and teach you everything you need to know. No previous canyoning experience is required, and if you're not comfortable with the bigger jumps, there are always alternative options—including another zipline!
THE EXPERIENCE
UNFORGETTABLE FROM START TO FINISH
Towering waterfalls, epic jumps and stunning scenery around every corner.
We film every adventure so you can stay in the moment while we capture your memories
