Canyon | A trip through a canyon (a gully surrounded by tall cliffs).There are no abseils but plenty of rock hoping and scrambling. Drive some cars to the track in Godson St. Follow the track to Hat Hill Creek. Put on wet suits. Morning tea break at a suitable place in the canyon. Continue downstream to where Hat Hill Creek plunges into the Grose. Retrace upstream to the exit point. Have lunch, change into dry clothes for the walk out that will take about one hour. We will connect with the track leading to Hat Hill. If we have time we will visit the Aboriginal engravings and grinding grooves near the car park. Drive to the start of the walk to collect vehicles. Bring a helmet. Wet suit or thermals depending on how you handle cold water. We will be in and out of the creek all day. Shoes that grip on wet rocks. Waterproof bags for your food, clothes and personal items. Water. I would not recommend drinking from Hat Hill Creek. There are side creeks where we can refill. Leave a change of clothes in the car.
