What To Expect
Port Alice Canyoning Tour Taster (2–3 hrs)
Start at the base of the falls, suit up in wetsuits, helmets, and harnesses, then climb to the top of the second cascade. After a rappel tutorial, you’ll descend directly into the waterfall—an adrenaline-filled experience in a stunning natural setting. The trip ends in a crystal-clear pool where you can swim and soak up the beauty.
Port Alice Canyoning Tour Explorer (3–4 hrs)
This extended trip takes you higher up the canyon for multiple rappels. Start with a short vertical drop into a deep pool perfect for jumping and swimming, followed by a dramatic descent down a massive waterfall with ledges and natural obstacles. Finish with the final two rappels into the main pool, building skill and confidence as you go.
Port Alice Canyoning Tour Conquest (6–8 hrs)
The ultimate canyoning experience. After a hike to the top with sweeping views, gear up for 9 rappels, natural slides, downclimbs, and optional jumps. Surrounded by waterfalls and canyon walls, you’ll push your limits, build skills, and finish the day with a true sense of accomplishment.
