Guided Ice Walk- Grotto Canyon (2BS)

Step into a frozen fairytale on this easy, beginner-friendly guided ice walk through Grotto Canyon!

This is a must-see winter experience where we journey 4 km round trip along the frozen creek bed. With minimal elevation gain, this accessible adventure is perfect for everyone. You'll witness the canyon's spectacular winter magic, featuring captivating bubbly ice formations and breathtaking frozen waterfalls.

Your guide will share the rich history of the area as we move at a slow and steady pace. This is an "enjoy the journey" hike, ensuring ample time for photos and group connection.

Prepare for Adventure: Expect cold and snow—please dress warmly in layers and wear appropriate footwear. I will supply traction aids or snow shoes if conditions require them.

Hiking time is variable depending on the group. There is always plenty of time for lunch, photos and discussion. The end time in Eventbrite is just an estimate.
