It is quite a different tour to the Dove Canyon - the canyon is bigger and so are the waterfalls, which means there is a lot more abseiling.** We meet at our Cradle Mountain office, get you kitted out and then drive about half an hour in our bus. A short walk brings us to the canyon. After we abseil the first 20 metre waterfall, we find one waterfall after another until we reach the last, and biggest, waterfall - Petrifying Falls. ![Machinery Canyon Banner 1](https://cradlemountaincanyons.com.au/volumes/images/Banners/_1600x1000_crop_center-center_60_none/35845/Machinery-Canyon-Banner-1.webp) ![divider](/assets/images/divider-bot-angledDown-charcoal.svg) We don't have advertised daily departures of this tour, but sometimes relocate Dove Canyon tours to Machinery Canyon if the flow of the Dove River is too high. If you have a group of at least four that wants to do this tour specifically, give us a call on 1300 032 384.
