Bright
Bright (including Wandiligong and Porepunkah)
Beautiful township, particularly in autumn and spring, on the
edge of the Snowy Mountains.
Situated 308 km north-east of Melbourne and 310 m above sea level,
the township and shire of Bright is one of Victoria's most
attractive tourist destinations. Nestled in the beautiful Ovens
Valley and surrounded by the towering Australian Alps, Bright
offers good quality off-the-mountain accommodation to those wishing
to ski at the nearby resorts of Mt Buffalo, Mt Hotham and Falls
Creek. In autumn the russet tones and the colourful blaze, against
the backdrop of the pine-clad hills, adds to the appeal of this
scenic district.
