Canyoning with kids

Great half-day activity for the family. Beautiful surroundings, plenty of waterfalls, lots of challenging terrain with water-filled boots. Good gear that kept us warm and safe. Kids loved it. You definately need a bit of stamina and fitness for this one, we were stumbling over rocks and boulder, crawling through culverts, abseiling down and climbing up waterfalls, and walking through farmland.
