Bright Seasons
Bright is truly a town of four seasons with each providing its own unique blend of enjoyment and relaxation.
Summer:
Bright is catching a trout in the mountain streams, sitting by, rafting, floating or swimming in the clear Ovens River. Choose to sip fine wines from the Alpine Valleys, have a gourmet picnic by the shady riversides, dine on locally sourced produce at the wide range of restaurants and street side cafes or enjoy music in the park. Have coffee and cake, visit the bakeries or have fun on the river waterslide.
Take a walk on the many trails that abound in the region, including those that cross the Razorback toward the High Plains cattlemen huts. Explore on horseback or bicycle and ride the extensive and Australias premier rail trail.
Summer is fun for families canoe, gold pan, paraglide, play tennis, golf, bushwalk, wander the bush and street markets or just read a book or have a relaxation massage.
Autumn:
Enjoy the sun and the colours of red, orange gold and yellow as Brights famous trees and avenues of oaks, liquid ambers, poplars and Japanese, maples come ablaze in color. Stroll the Canyon Walk along the scenic Ovens River, take a microlight flight or watch the hangliders soar above Mt Buffalo and enjoy the valley vistas. If you have the spirit of adventure but no experience, there are guides and instructors waiting to get you going. Celebrate the Autumn Festival with farm tours, camp fire nights, Art & Craft shows, street stalls, open gardens and the Gala Day Parade. From April to May is a photographers and vistors delight amongst the falling leaves of Bright and surrounds.
