Whether you’re visiting or living in Brisbane, you’ll love what’s on offer at Riverlife.  Situated at the base of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs in the heart of Brisbane, Riverlife provides an adventure experience without having to travel outside of the city.

Looking for a cultural experience….
Meet the local Brisbane Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the rich culture of Aboriginal life by watching or participating in activities such as:

• Traditional song and dance passed down through generations
• Primitive fire starting
• 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
• Painting message sticks and clap sticks
• Traditional aboriginal face painting
• Taste traditional foods of the Indigenous culture

The Yuggera Aboriginal Dancers are responsible for sharing their culture, and you can be confident that you are embracing a unique experience from world-class performers.  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 first hand with Rock Climbing sessions, either by 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 the best views of Brisbane city and the river.  Climbs for all levels are available, from beginners right through to the most advanced climbers.

Prefer descent to ascent?  Then opt for Abseiling instead.  The extreme rush of abseiling down the glorious cliffs, will be sure to please any adventure lover.  If it’s your first time, don’t panic!  Qualified, experienced instructors will guide you all the way, and by the time it’s over, the only negative thing you will recall will be the neverending walk to the top of the steps before you began.

**No prior experience is necessary for any of the climbing activities at Riverlife, and you will be guided by qualified and experienced instructors.  All sessions include instruction, a safety briefing and equipment.

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 best 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 confident paddler, then hire a kayak and take it out by yourself or with an experienced group of friends or family.

Have an instructor show you the basics of Pumpabiking, then give it a go yourself.  This South African-designed vessel is a self propelled hydrofoil that glides along the top of the water.  This is something you’ve probably never tried before so get in and experience something different.  The best part of this activity is:  If you manage to stay dry on your very first session, Riverlife will give you your money back.

Wheeling around….
There are plenty of people who prefer to keep their feet firm on the ground, so if you’re one of these you might like to hire a Mountain Bike or Rollerblades and absorb some of Brisbane’s best parks and tracks, all right by the river.
