TAP FOR MORE INFO:

Imagine climbing, scrambling, sliding and swimming your way through some of New Zealand’s loveliest landscapes.  

With Abel Tasman Canyons, you can explore the remarkable granite canyons on an adrenaline-fuelled adventure. 

Prepare to get wet as you slide down waterfalls, leap into deep freshwater pools and abseil alongside mountain streams.

Canyoning is a unique way of really immersing yourself in the wilderness – you’ll head totally off track as you explore one of five different canyons, with challenges to suit all thrill levels. 

Multiple experiences cover parks at the top of the South Island – the famous Abel Tasman National Park, Mount Richmond Forest Park and Kahurangi National Park.
