Uimhir a hAon
About
Uimhir a hAon, the first canyon we explored, holds a special place in our hearts – this is where it all began for Waterfall Freaks in Ireland. Packed full of incredible waterfalls, this canyon gives you a taste of what canyoning is all about. Its open layout makes it more attractive for first timers, allowing you to learn the basics without worrying about committing to a walled-in gorge.
Don’t be fooled though, with over 10 waterfalls, this canyon provides plenty of abseil action for those who enter.

Highlights
Variety is the Spice of Life…
From big to small, steep to gentle, you’ll get to experience all kinds of waterfalls in this canyon. Our expert guides will teach you everything you need to know to send them in style.
Take the plunge
Due to the rock type in this mountain, a number of naturally occurring plunge pools have formed in this canyon. What better way to enjoy the views, than chilling in a pool on the top of the mountain. Wander behind the veil to unlock the secret level…

Disconnect from the world for a while and enjoy the best of what nature has to offer. Take it all in; the soft white noise of the river, the gentle breeze in the long grass, the smell of the fresh air.
