Introduction

This canyon is described in comprehensive detail in Canyoning Around Victoria guidebook

Use the Buckland River Gauge on the BOM to judge the flow. <1.3m = low, 1.3-1.6m = high (this seems to be quite a large range and conservative though), >1.6m = flood.

If there has been any rain in the last month, then this is a serious swiftwater canyon. Most years there is at least one serious injury/death at this waterfall. It is illegal to leave the walking track to the base of the falls - NATIONAL PARKS REGULATIONS 2013 - REG 64.

Approach

Find a way to the top of the falls.

Descent

Canyon Topo

There is a great canyon topo in the Canyoning Around Victoria guidebook. Go buy it.

Tips

• Bring minimum 2x 50m of rope. The top of R6 is very cramped and only has room for 2 people, so add an extra 50m if the group is larger than this.
• 8 abseils, the longest is 45m.
• Most parties skip R1, as it is 100m upstream of the main face. (R1 is a thread on the large boulder)
• Most anchors are double bolted with two independent rings.
• R5 is on the TR parallel to a narrow crack, R6 is at a small ledge on the left where the waterfall opens up again.
• The last abseil (R8) is a 10mm thread. Bring 7-8mm accessory cord to replace it if required.

Exit

Avoid scrambling on steep slippery rock faces as you make your way back to the car.

Red tape

It is illegal to leave the walking track to the base of the falls - NATIONAL PARKS REGULATIONS 2013 - REG 64.
