It doesn’t matter if you’re visiting Brisbane or call Brisbane your home, you can’t go past what’s on offer at Riverlife. With their offices at the base of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs in the heart of Brisbane, Riverlife provides an adventure experience without having to leave the city.
Looking for a cultural experience
Meet Brisbane’s local Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the fascinating culture of Aboriginal life by watching or getting involved in activities such as:
- Traditional dancing and songs passed down through the generations
- Playing traditional Aboriginal musical instruments, like the didgeridoo
- Share in the stories of Aboriginal life and the history of this ancient land
- Learn to throw a boomerang… properly
- Traditional aboriginal face decoration
- Taste traditional foods of the Indigenous culture
The Yuggera Aboriginal Dancers have performed for audiences both in Australia and around the world, including the UK and Europe, once performing for The Queen.
Climb or drop
Experience the Kangaroo Point Cliffs for yourself with Rock Climbing sessions, both in the daylight or in the evening. The 20m high weathered cliff face is the perfect setting for a great outdoor adventure where the term rock climbing is literal, so you climb real rocks. From the top, you can take in amazing views of Brisbane city and the river. Climbs for all levels are available, from novices right through to the most advanced climbers.
Prefer descent to ascent? Then you can try Abseiling instead. The extreme rush of abseiling down the glorious cliffs, will be sure to please any adventure lover. If it’s your first time, don’t panic! Qualified, experienced instructors will be there for you all the way.
For water enthusiasts
If you prefer water activities, book in for a guided Kayak tour and enjoy the city from a different angle. Paddle your way up or down the river and see some of Brisbane’s gorgeous features from the water. Kayaking is available both day and night, and Riverlife offer special packages such as Friday Night Paddle & Prawns and Saturday Night Paddle & Riverside BBQ. If you’ve done all this before and are a experienced paddler, then hire a kayak and take it out by yourself or with an experienced group of friends or family.
