Located in the lush green World Heritage Wet Tropics Rainforest, you’ll be treated to abseils, rock jumps, rockslides & more at either Crystals or Behana.
It’s a tour where you can overcome those fears, experience true adventure in a fun, exciting and safe way. You'll be taking a refreshing swim in the warm FNQ waters, within the World Heritage Rainforest and if you're lucky you may see some of the endemic wildlife of the Tropics.
We visit either Behana Canyon OR CrystalCanyon, working with the best safest conditions on the day.
Behana Canyon - 10am or 12pm Departures
Surrounded by lush green rainforest & granite formations Behana is a wide open space with it’s main feature being a series of waterfalls coming together into a bowl… Your qualified tour guide will take you through on an adventure, the best thing about Behana Canyon experience is that everything on this course is optional & each of our guests can make the choices of what they’d like to do without it affecting the other people in their groups – this makes it ideal for families or those a little nervous or first time canyoners whilst still catering to those more intermediate/advanced levels.
Crystal Canyon - 6.30am Departure
One of the most popular Waterfalls in the Cairns Region is the beautiful Crystal Cascades, surrounded by tropical rainforest, with a 2km track passing through of many water pools. Cairns Canyoning offers a whole other level of experience to explore these waterfalls through our water courses… Enjoy a 30 metre zipline into the refreshing pool, an abseil down & through one of the waterfalls itself, jumps, slides, abseils, a chance to appreciate nature in a different style of adventure.
Duration: Standard experience takes around 5hrs. Please allow up to 5.5hrs for the whole experience from start to finish, every day is a little different, depends on weather, road conditions & fun!
WHoop whoop. aim to please, and thank you for having a great time
I highly recommend canyoning as it's a full day of adrenaline, jumping off cliffs, being soaked under waterfalls, and sharing the whole exhilarating experience with people who are having a great time. I've found canyoning groups to be a very supportive and motivating group of people, constantly encouraging you to push your limits, and you feel very rewarded afterwards. At Behana, Sam and Dom were the most positive guides I've had, and they literally dive head first into every activity and fully support you to do the same. You're not pushed to do anything that looks too dangerous, of course, and I don't think the smile left their faces for the whole day. Last, lunch was great!
Brilliant day Top lads running the tour Definitely recommend
Brilliant and thank you
I was very hurt in the activity, a serious injury to my back, the instructors just kept saying that everything is fine and I'll just breathe. I had to go to the hospital alone, they didn't even bother to check with me in the evening if I was okay.
Thank you for your comment, and we are sorry to hear this. It does not sound like something we would do, however i will look into this. We pride ourselves in doing the best, for ourselves and all our guests every single day.
Great experience with great guides! It was fun and safe to do. Recommended!

Fantastic day of adventure!
We loved the scenery, adventure activities, and guides knowledge of the area. We felt safe at all time and got to do some amazing rapids, jumps and rock slides that we'd never do on our own! Highly recommend Cairns Canyoning!!
