Who are we?    

Deep Canyon, Wanaka is New Zealand’s premier canyon guiding company. We have been running guided descents since 1994. Our guides are highly trained, very experienced and easy to get on with. Our equipment and procedures are of the highest standard and our commitment to safety is absolute. This allows us to run maximum adventure/maximum fun trips in wild and fantastic situations. Our focus is strongly on personal satisfaction and good humour.

Who is canyoning for?

Most of our trips are for any fun loving active person with a sense of adventure. Experience is not usually necessary; water confidence and reasonable fitness are an advantage. Our more advanced trips require good fitness and maybe some relevant experience (say in abseiling).  Attitude can get you a long way though - talk to us about it…

General info

We provide all equipment (wetsuits, harnesses etc) and comprehensive instruction. You will learn to abseil. Bring a swimsuit and towel. Have a hearty breakfast - we’ll do the lunch. All trips run daily on a minimum of two people. Trip sizes are small and personal. Photos and video available. Enquiries about children, large groups and flexible times; contact us directly.

Season and weather

Canyoning is a summertime ‘get wet’ activity. Our season runs from early November until late March / early April. Trips run rain or shine (unless it rains heaps!).
