Also known as the Wollangambe Canyon Lower Tourist Section, this 2.4km canyon is non-technical but still poses many challenges. Taking up to 10hrs to complete, it includes exposed climbs, jumps, difficult scrambles, long swims and a trek of 9km to walk in and out.
Long, warm summer days are the best time to do Wollangambe Canyon 2, to avoid getting too cold in the chilly river waters. Don't forget your wetsuit and be sure to bring a lilo, pack raft of other type of inflatable float.
Starting from Cathedral Reserve, walk west along Northern Fire Trail for 1.2km then veer right at the fork, heading downhill. After reaching the top of a long hill where you'll see a warning sign, turn right and head north another 1.5 km to the river.
To reach the river, there's an exposed 300m down-climb using tree roots. Soon after entering the canyon you'll arrive at a difficult jump or 2m down-scramble. This canyon also features many more scrambles over massive boulders, lots of long swims, and a steep climb out.
