Come prepared for jumps, down-climbs, slides, scrambles and swims when you do Twister and Rock Creek canyons. If tackling both canyons, plan for an 8-hour trip with a total walk in and out of 4km.
Twister Canyon, also known as Sheep Dip Canyon, is the smaller of the 2. Twister Canyon descends into Rocky Creek Canyon and is the starting point if you're doing both canyons. If only doing Twister Canyon, plan for a 3-hour trip and a total walk in and out of 2km.
Twister Canyon features slides into cold pools and has many jumps that can also be down-climbed. After the last jump you'll need to descend a 5m waterfall. Be sure to bring your own rope for a hand-over-hand descent of the waterfall. Don't rely on others to leave a fixed line here.
Rocky Creek Canyon is long and deep. If you're only doing Rocky Creek Canyon, plan for a 5-hour trip and total walk in and out of 3km. Rocky Creek Canyon features down-climbs, scrambles and swims, including a long swim near the end of the canyon.
