Grade:4/6		Length	9km	300m	Sydney Branch

Wollangambe 2 is a canyoners delight but without abseils. You'll need a good lilo/surfmat or airbed and a wetsuit and a flotation device is also a good idea. Expect plenty of beautiful canyon sections where you'll paddle and several walk through sections over rocks. People coming should be good at rock scrambling and not afraid of water!

(Fully Booked - Ask leader about waiting list) River Caves Canyon is almost certainly one of the very easiest canyons to do because you barely get wet feet and you have zero abseils or swims.
