DAY ONE
8.30am — Bright Breakfast
The smell of deliciousness will be wafting around every corner, so follow your nose to one of the cafes in the town centre.

We’ve scheduled you some fresh mountain air on a lovely 5km-return riverside stroll along the charming Cherry Walk or Canyon Walk.
11.00am — Apple Farm

Bright has a number of local brews – from beer, to coffee (…and wine and gin) – and all the venues serve lunch!
1.30pm — Mount Buffalo
‘Wow’ factor doesn’t get more wow than this – cuddle up on a romantic Portaledge Picnic on the iconic Mount Buffalo. Hanging off a cliff not your idea of romance? Pause at Buffalo’s Gorge Lookout then take a short hike to Ladies Bath and Eurobin Falls on the way down.

Back in the valley, stop in Porepunkah for dinner, grab a glass of wine, and watch the evening envelop the granite cliffs of Mount Buffalo.
