:Where Worklife Matters

It doesn’t matter if you’re visiting Brisbane or are a permanent resident, you won’t be able to resist what’s on offer at Riverlife. With their offices 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 Brisbane’s local Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the fascinating culture of Aboriginal life by just watching or participating 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 Europe and the UK, once performing for Queen Elizabeth II.

Drop or climb

Experience the Kangaroo Point Cliffs first hand with Rock Climbing sessions, either by night or day. The 20m high weathered cliff face is the perfect setting for a great outdoor adventure where the term rock climbing is literal, because you actually climb real. From the top, you can take in incredible 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 bring joy to any lover of adventure. If it’s your first time, don’t panic! Qualified, experienced instructors will be there for you the whole time.

For water enthusiasts

If you rather 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 spectacular 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 family or friends.
