What to expect

Rocky Creek is one of the most magnificent Blue Mountains canyons and is regarded by insiders as a 'must do'. A short 10-minute walk leads you to Twister Canyon. After wetsuits are fitted the fun begins. This canyon is also known as Sheep Dip. You literally jump into a pool, swim across and slide or jump into the next one for a total of 8 pools. It’s drenching! We then exit the canyon and follow a trail for 30 minutes through a spectacular valley lined with tree ferns and arrive at the start of Rocky Creek where we have our famous lunch. This canyon is of a completely different nature, with 50+ metre-high walls towering overhead. Many tunnel swims, waterfall scrambles and rock slides take us to the sunshine at the end where we reverse this canyon to the start. From here a 30-minute walk takes us back to the vehicles.
