Bright Visitors Centre and Bright Escapes are located on the main highway in the beautiful North East Victorian town of Bright and assist visitors to the area to be able to access everything that they need to make their stay an exciting and memorable one. We have been established as a Level 1 Information Centre for 11 years and have a wealth of knowledge about the nearby attractions and activities that attract people in each of the beautiful seasons that are bringing visitors back year after year. Summer provides the perfect weather to take a dip in the sparkling Ovens river that runs from the Victorian Alps down through Bright and down past Porepunkah. Autumn brings the magical colours of our many Europian trees that are selabrated with an annual Festival. Winter is every ski bunny and snow boards dream with Falls creek and Mount Hotham to choose from. Buffalo is still available for snow play and cross country skiing, yet is amazing all year round with fantastic views and walks. Spring brings our annual Spring Festival with markets and colours galore. Often a paragliders paradise.

Just one and a half hours leisurely drive from Melbourne; Village of Euroa, gateway to the Strathbogie Ranges lies waiting to be discovered. The entire region is easily accessible from the Hume Freeway between Avenel and Violet Town and the Maroondah Highway between Yea and Merton. It offers a diversity of experiences within a landscape of rugged hills, majestic vistas, spectacular rocky outcrops, magical forests, waterfalls and ferny glades. In a time past bushrangers such as Ned and the Kelly Gang roamed the ranges. While goldminers and loggers forged a settlement, the ranges became a major wool growing area, pioneered by the legendary Eliza Forlonge. In recent times the area has gained recognition as premier horse breeding country, home to several top thoroughbred stud farms and many other equine establishments. The region is also especially renowned for its abundance of native wildlife The history and heritage of the Ranges are preserved in the quaint towns and villages of Euroa, Longwood, Avenel, Violet Town, Ruffy and Strathbogie. View historic buildings and heritage trails, in the rustic homesteads, cottages and rural outbuildings and in the natural beauty of the land itself - ancient, mystical, uniquely Australian.
