Bright is located on the Great Alpine Road (B500) in North East Victoria, Australia. The town has a population of about 2500 and is nestled in the valley of the Ovens River surrounded by the hills and mountains of the Alpine High Country. The Great Alpine Road is a sealed road from Wangaratta to Bairnsdale over the high country. Bright is approximately 3 ½ hours drive from Melbourne, 5 hours from Canberra and 7 hours from Sydney.
The quickest and easiest drive to Bright from Melbourne, Sydney or Canberra is via the Hume Highway (M31) then turning onto the Great Alpine Road (B500) near Wangaratta. Bright is a 45 minute drive from the Hume Highway at Wangaratta. If coming from Sydney or Canberra you can also turn at Albury for Yackandandah then Myrtleford to Bright.
Some visitors like to take the scenic route. Try one of these alternatives, but allow yourself plenty of time to enjoy the drive.
From Melbourne this can be:
Via the Princes Highway (B1) to Bairnsdale and then Great Alpine Road over the high plains to Bright. A stunning drive over the top of the high country passed the ski fields of Mt Hotham with views over Mt Feathertop and to Mt Buffalo. (In winter chains are required from Omeo to Harrietville and can be hired in Omeo and dropped in Harrietville.)
Via Healsville, Alexandra, (or Whittlesea, Yea) then on to Mansfield, Whitfield, Lake Buffalo and Myrtleford. A winding scenic route through some isolated rural areas and with some gravel road driving.
