Kayaking
Come and adventure around Bright, in the beautiful Ovens River valley. Situated less than four hours drive north from Melbourne, Bright is the perfect location for an adventurous weekend getaway or family holiday destination.
With a wide range of adventures for all levels of experience Bright Adventure Company will deliver a fun, safe and memorable experience.
Enjoy a fun and family-friendly introduction to whitewater paddling! This easygoing tour is led by experienced guides who will help you navigate the rapids along the way. It’s a great way to build confidence on the water, share laughs, and create special memories together. You'll find this easier if you've paddled a kayak before - and come with a sense of adventure and a readiness for a great time outdoors!
We paddle in two-seat inflatable sportrafts. Share a boat with family or friends, or if the numbers work out unevenly take a boat solo.
This trip is perfect for ages 10 and up. There's no hard age limit but falling out in some of the rapids could be quite scary for little ones.
