Description
This is a beautiful and sustained canyon, although technically quite easy with just one 17 m abseil to get into the canyon. After exiting the main constriction, a little way down the tourist track is also a pretty grotto under a waterfall with glow worms and then continuing on further down Greaves Creek is Beauchamp Falls where there is a 2nd great abseil overlooking the Grose Valley. Grand Canyon is a wet canyon and includes a 30m swim, the grotto also requires a short swim so, as the water is still cool wetsuits are needed as well as all the usual canyoning gear for the two abseils. For those going to the club social evening at Blackheath we will be back in plenty of time.
