Macquarie Rivulet Canyoning - lower section.

Tue 13th Jan 2026

Completed

We'll go mid-week to avoid the crowds. This popular canyon has several waterfall drops in the lower canyon starting below Clover Falls. The longest is an optional 18-20m drop. The lower section is great for people who want to experience a bit of technical waterfall abseiling. For experienced abseilers/canyoners with their own wetsuits and abseiling/canyoning gear.
