Brisbane Inner-City Adventures

December 12th, 2009

Whether you’re visiting Brisbane or call Brisbane your home, you can’t go past what’s on offer at Riverlife. Located at the base of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs in the heart of Brisbane, Riverlife provides an adventure experience without having to look any further than the city.

Looking for a cultural experience

Meet the local Brisbane Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the rich culture of Aboriginal life by just watching or joining in activities such as:

  • Traditional dancing and songs passed down through 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 painting
  • 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 Queen Elizabeth II.

Climb or drop

Experience the Kangaroo Point Cliffs for yourself with Rock Climbing sessions, at various times through-out the day or night. 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 inexperienced right through to the most seasoned climbers.

Prefer descent to ascent? Then you can try Abseiling instead. The extreme rush of abseiling down the magnificant 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.
