Just a nice stroll, up and down the tracks . . .water passing by with plenty of places to stop and erect your deck chair and read a book for a while and relax . .

Easy walking along the Ovens river, short and long versions with bridges to cross river. Can see where the goldminers extracted gold & read history of area along the way. Easy access from several spots stay five minutes or five hours as you please.

This is a lovely walk and epitomises the essence of Bright. Take a bottle of water with you on a hot day.

We enjoyed a leisurely stroll along the river in the evening. There are a number of birds to keep you entertained. It is a easy walk on a good track. Definitely would do it again.

The scenery around the Ovens river is beautiful, took lots of photographs and enjoyed a lovely walk in the sunshine. The walk is not too difficult and as long as you watch your step in some places, is doable by most age groups.

When in Bright, you must take a walk along the Canyon walk! I was her in Summer, and can imagine that it must be amazing in the Autumn season!

There is excellent signage along the river edge, the path is undulating but not too steep. At around 6 pm there was an amazing array of bird life in the trees next to the river.

Great walk along the Ovens River with suspension bridge cross overs. The history along the walk is great as there are the old diggings from the Chinese with the tailings cut through hard rock which must have been incredibly difficult. Keep an eye out for snakes though. There are even areas where you can walk down and put your feet into the river.

Great Walk with beautiful views, we saw a Plater-puss in the river. The old suspension bridges give a great view.

This walk is the perfect way to start the day. We visited in summer and it was fresh with a little chill in the air when we headed out around 6am each day. The tracks run each side of the Ovens River, the 'town side' is a little flatter and smoother, the other is little more rocky so needs more care if you decide to get a jog up. The sound of the river running over the rocks is lovely and the ducks are nice company. Enjoy!

Very historical walk outlining the gold rush days. Beware of frogs on the track at night after returning from the Bright Brewery!!!

Don't forget to do the Caynon walk which runs from the Cottages right into the centre of Bright. This would be spectatular in Autumn with all the poplar tress around.

We love the canyon walk as it is close to town, picturesque and tranquil. You can ride your bikes to the start then it's a lovely walk with lots to see
