UK Canyoning Association

Standards, Development, Certification

Over the last year we have been working closely with industry leaders to create a new canyoning organisation for the UK.
The UKCA is a non-profit organisation recognised as the National Awarding and Training Body for canyoning and gorge walking activities throughout the UK.
We aim to deliver high quality, standardised, internationally recognised training and certification. The UKCA training and certification courses are designed for all canyoneers from recreational through to professional level. Our training courses follow standards set out by professional experts and industry standards. We're responsible for promoting the highest standards of canyoning instruction and guiding, striving to ensure that canyoneers and participants enjoy quality, safe and fun experiences.

COURSE DATES
This coming season we have a range or canyoning courses from novice to advanced for both recreational and professional canyoneers. So if you are just getting into the sport, you are looking to up-skill or certify then we have a course for you.
