Neighbourhood highlights
Bright is a unique country town with so many amazing activities on your doorstep. The house is situated on a no-through road, so it is very quiet. The best thing about this location is the pathway immediately opposite the house that takes you directly to the river and Bright's iconic swimming hole in a 3-minute stroll (250m). The walking bridge over the Ovens River opens up access to the best cafes (350m), shops and of course Bright brewery (450m) and ice-creamery !
To work off the indulgences mountain-bikers and runners can access single track within 1-minute, leading to arguably the best bike park in Australia. Road cyclists are at the foot of some of the best climbs in the country. Or just drive yourself to a waterfall or lookout on majestic Mount Buffalo. If you like the cooler months then skiing is less than an hour drive. And... well, you get the drift, we are getting excited just writing this!
