The Ovens River flows through Bright as a clear, fast-moving alpine river, running for about 191 kilometres from the Victorian Alps to the Murray River. In this section, it moves over rocks and through small drops, forming pools and a short canyon carved into the riverbank. It’s a central feature of the town, with easy access to the water along walking tracks and parks. Conditions can change after rain, so take care near the river’s edge.
