The Abseil Experience Day is a great opportunity for your unit to get a taste of this exciting adventure!
The day covers the requirements for the Abseiling Badge, or up to Stage 3 Vertical (except the Rock Climbing specific “I Can” statements).

We run 3 sessions on each day: 9:30-11:30am, 12-2pm, and 2:30-4:30pm, with space for between 12 & 20 Participants in each session. Session 1 & 2 are for Scout Units and Session 3 for Cub Scout Units.
Cost is $22.00 per Scout.
If you have less than 12 Participants, consider inviting a nearby Unit for a joint activity!

If your Unit is excited about abseiling, check the calendar for the dates of the Scout Abseil days and contact Region Office to book in your Unit – we can not accept bookings for Individual Scouts.
