Canyon Experience :
     

Descended team of 3 on 10.7.24. Very low flow, couple of shallow-angle downclimbs near the top are protectable with trees/rock spikes. The jump in the video was deep, the big abseil all bolts in good condition.
One short abseil near bottom has a rusty knifeblade peg and maillon, but you can throw a rope round a tree 2m above it for an anchor.
Parking, there’s a lay-by for 1-2 cars on the right before you get as far as the campsite.

Canyon Experience :
     

Easy walk in on the TR, took us about an hour to get to the canyon start. Low water canyon with a few cool jumps and abseils. Would be considerably harder in higher flows as there are a number of tight sections. The big pitch has a handline bolt to the main bolted anchors that were all in good order.
