Inner-City Adventures in Brisbane
Whether you’re visiting Brisbane or call Brisbane your home, you should have a look at 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 venture outside of the city.
Looking for a cultural experience
Meet Brisbane’s local Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the rich culture of Aboriginal life by watching or joining 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 Australia
- 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.
Drop or climb
Experience the Kangaroo Point Cliffs for yourself with Rock Climbing sessions, either by night or day. The 20m high weathered cliff face is the perfect setting for a great outdoor adventure where the term rock climbing is literal, because you actually climb real. From the top, you can take in incredible views of Brisbane city and the river. Climbs for all levels are available, from inexperienced right through to the most seasoned climbers.
Prefer descent to ascent? Then try Abseiling instead. The extreme rush of abseiling down the glorious cliffs, will put a smile on the face of any adventure lover. If it’s your first time, don’t panic! Qualified, experienced instructors will help you from start to finish.
For water enthusiasts
If you are more interested by 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 night and day, 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 frequent paddler, then hire a kayak and take it out by yourself or with an experienced group of family or friends.
