thumb image 7fallsSituated on the central plateau, near the small village of Henrietta, Tamarin Falls is the one canyon of  the island you do not want to miss. With its 11 waterfalls, multiple jumps, ziplines, deep ponds and lush green vegetation, Tamarin falls remains one of the most beautiful canyon of the Island that will suit the beginner to the hardcore adventurer.

HALF DAY

Abseiling in the spray

This Half day trip is designed for those whose first experience it is or for beginners. The trip starts at 09 15 hrs with the usual safety briefing and equipment primer. The group then hit the trail for a 5min hike to the first abseil.  You will discover the first part of the Tamarin Falls canyon with a first 15m Abseil to get you in the drill, a 40m impressive descent and a fun and adrenaline driven zip line that ends in the water... The courageous ones can test their courage on our 7m cliff jump into the water... The exit is easy with 2 steep trails not lasting 10 min each.

For bookings of more than 5 people we offer a Make-Ya-Wich style BBQ on a magnificent view point giving on the Canyon.

End Time: 1430 hrs
