Call of the Wild are well known for canyoning in the UK.
Adventure Canyoning in Wales can be a Combined Water/Rock Activity. Canyoning in the UK can represent a spectrum of activities some of which are mostly rock activities and some of which are mostly water activities. Many of the following names are used by different people to mean quite different activities:-
gorge walks or scrambles (can be wet or dry or alternating the two, involving the ascent or descent of a water course);
adventure walks or scrambles (covers a multitude of variations);
canyoning, (usually wet. It traditionally involves the descent of a steep water course);
adventure swimming (another name for coasteering or a non-technical variation of canyoning);
river running (deliberately swimming down white water rapids).
Our session very much falls within the canyoning, river running and adventure walk descriptions set out above. Canyoning with Call of the Wild in the Brecon Beacons, Wales is not to be confused with the other activities such as gorge walking. Call of the Wildâ??s canyoning sessions are very much for the adrenaline junky! How does jumping off 20ft waterfalls sound? What about a 30ft waterfall? If this sounds appealing then give us a call because this is the activity for you.
â??Most fantastic fun weâ??ve had for ages. Canâ??t stop talking about canyoning. Instructors were brilliant, excellent sense of humour and very patient. This was great value â?? the perfect weekend.â??
