Based in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, the canyon session offers a glimpse of a magical place not easily accessible without a trained canyon guide. If you’re looking for fresh, watersports-based adrenaline adventure, immersed in nature, Canolfan Tryweryn’s canyoning is the trip for you!

Yes. There will be a qualified guide with you at all times when you go canyoning. They’ll guide you on traverses, jumps, scrambles, slides and swims, as you descend a steep mountain river.

Not at all! You need to be water-confident, physically fit and able to swim, but we have first timers canyoning with us regularly. You will attend a full safety briefing before going into the canyon, where your experienced, qualified guide will make sure everyone is happy with the activity.

The minimum age for the canyoning is 12 years old. Under 14s must be accompanied by an adult.

We have no maximum age, but canyoning is a physically demanding activity.

Everyone canyoning must be able to swim 25m and be physically fit. We don't recommend canyoning for people who are pregnant.

Many additional needs and medical conditions can be accommodated when canyoning - it's always best to seek advice from your doctor beforehand. Canyoning is a physically demanding activity, including slides, jumps and plunges into cold water. We're always happy to chat through your needs by phone or email to discuss whether canyoning is for you.

Yes! Visitors with disabilities should see our accessibility page for details.

Throughout the year, we also offer special deals and off-peak rates. Watch our social media for details.

You should bring swimwear and a towel. If you own a wetsuit and it is suitable for canyoning (i.e. long-legged) then you can bring that along too. Don't worry if you don't own a wetsuit - we offer them for hire. We provide wetsuit boots, helmets and buoyancy aids on all our sessions.

Yes, wetsuits are compulsory - but you'll be glad of it when you get splashed! The wetsuit also offers a layer of protection against knocks.

We have a full range of wetsuits to fit a range of sizes, and we are one of the few activity providers in the UK who offer wetsuits to fit both male and female physiques.

If you have your own wetsuit it must be long-legged and checked over by the Centre staff before your session. If you do not have your own they are available to hire. Wetsuit boots are included in your session price. If you'd like some tips on how to put on a wetsuit, check out our handy blog post. 

If you may need your medication (eg asthma inhaler) while you're on the raft, yes bring it with you. We can keep medications dry in our first aid kits on the rafts.
