Abseiling & White Water Rafting Day from Perth

Summer white water rafting trips combine all the elements of a memorable adventure – beautiful scenery, thrilling rapids, solitude and relaxation. Add abseiling to this and the excitement levels peak.

We offer a day of abseiling the Wellington Dam quarry and then white water rafting the magnificent Collie River. Collie is situated 200 km south of Perth and offers the opportunity to experience two adventurous activities. In the morning we will take you through a safety briefing on safe roping practices and equipment fitting and then it's off to do our first descent, about 8 metres high on the introductory face and building up from there.

After lunch, cool off from the hot summer sun swimming and paddling your way down the river. The Collie River's pristine waters are great for floating along and relaxing, but hang on tight when you experience the thrill of rapids such as '3 drops' and 'waterfalls'.

Your instructors on the day are highly trained, warm and friendly individuals chosen for their ability to make your day safe, fun-filled and unforgettable.

You can be sure your Instructor is a skilled, experienced professional focused totally on making the day one to remember.

Our instructors will shoot at various vantage spots during the day and will be available at no cost soon after the trip. We will do our best to ensure memories of your trip are captured.
