UBMBC Canyon Program

Canyoning is an exciting and exhilarating experience. Many members of our Club are keen canyoners.

We have very experienced Canyon Leaders, an introductory abseil training program and a vibrant, exciting canyoning program.

Safety is paramount and our Club emphasises safe practices and development of skills.

We expect that participants will take responsibility for their own welfare and safety in a manner consistent with their knowledge, age, experience and skill.


Entry into the UBMBC Canyoning Program

Members intending to join the UBMBC canyoning program must complete 3 bushwalks with the UBMBC (one must be a creek walk). After completing the 3 walks members should submit their recent canyoning experience to the UBMBC canyoning subcommittee then apply to attend a UBMBC rope practice day.

Members who are new to canyoning must complete 3 bushwalks with the UBMBC (one must be a creek walk). They are also required to complete an abseil training course with an accredited commercial training provider. After completing the 3 walks and the commercial training course, members should apply to the UBMBC canyoning subcommittee (canyoning@ubmbc.org.au) to attend a UBMBC rope practice day.

In joining or renewing membership with UBMBC, members who participate in canyoning must indicate that they have read, understood and accepted the UBMBC Canyoning Waiver by checking the box on the club website. The waiver describes the risks associated with canyoning and must be completed annually.
