Choosing a Guided Adventure Day

Abseiling in the Southern Suburbs & Armstrong Creek starts in Grovedale, though not on a local cliff. Geelong Adventure Specialists takes groups out to rock at the You Yangs and Anakie, which makes the southern suburbs a booking base rather than the place you climb.

How to check a southern-suburbs abseil booking against your group:

  • Private guiding only, so a team of mixed abilities stays together.
  • Four- or six-hour sessions, with abseiling added through combined packages.
  • Gear covered: ropes, harnesses, helmets and climbing shoes.
  • Smaller groups can ride free from Geelong or Lara.
  • Pricing starts from $180 per person.

  • Mountain biking for three hours as a change from the rock.
  • Team Challenge: a full day of checkpoints, clues and problem solving.
  • Time built in to reflect on how the team worked together.

Questions to put to Geelong Adventure Specialists

  • Which crag suits your group's experience, the You Yangs or Anakie?
  • Does your group of ten or more qualify for a dedicated climbing day?
  • Is transport included for your numbers?
  • What should each person bring beyond shoes, water, sun protection, a rain jacket and lunch?
