Featured Canyon
[edit] Claustral Canyon
The Black Hole of Calcutta
is an absolutely classic canyon. One of the most incredible 3 pitch abseils you will ever do, beautiful scenery the whole time, incredibly high narrow canyon walls, radiant glowing ferns, swims, jump ins, climbs downs, tunnels, glow worms! Claustral has it all.
It is a difficult canyon though, and requires a good deal of experience before doing it. Just off Bells Line of Road in the Blue Mountains, Claustral takes one very full day to complete.

Featured Whitewater
[edit] Barrington River
The Steps on the Barrington River
The
Barrington River is a great river for anyone who likes the idea of whitewater kayaking, but doesn't yet have the experience to get into large rapids. With a lot of grade 1 and 2 rapids the whole way along the river, you are guaranteed a lot of fun, but without much of the risk associated with the higher grade rapids.
Featured Walk
[edit] The Coast Walk - Royal National Park
The Coast Walk Icon - Eagle Rock
is a great walk along the east coast of the Royal National Park just to the south of Sydney. The 26km walk can be completed in one day by keen walkers, or taken over 2 days with overnight camping at Wattamolla or North Era beach. The scenery along the way is spectacular. Read more about it
here.
Featured Bike Ride
[edit] The Oaks Trail
The Oaks Trail Single Track
is a mountain bike trail between Woodford and Glenbrook in the Blue Mountains, NSW. Read more about it
here.
Featured Cave
[edit] Acoustic Pot
The bottom of the main pitch
is located in the B16-51 area in the popular Bungonia State Conservation Area, renowned for its extensive cave systems. It is a very popular cave due to the impressive 31m pitch near the entrance of the cave, it is one of the longer abseils at Bungonia. The acoustics in the pit are superb and are reflected in the name of the cave. Even if you are not prepared to descend the pitch it is still popular just to reach view the pitch from the top and to experience the wonderful acoustics. Read more about it
