1/2 Hour “Paddle Adventure” Waterbike Hire

At the heart of East Gippsland’s outdoor playground lies the Mitchell River—a clear, winding channel rich with native wildlife and striking natural features. Riverlake Discoveries offers a distinctive way to connect with this landscape through their 30-minute Waterbike Hire, a fresh, eco-friendly activity suited for all ages and skill levels. Located in Eagle Point, Victoria, just off Rivermouth Road, this experience sets itself apart by blending physical activity with close encounters of nature’s best.

Riders mount state-of-the-art Waterbikes designed for effortless pedaling across the pristine river waters. As you glide, ancient sandstone cliffs loom nearby, their vertical faces revealing geological stories millions of years old. Along the banks, dense stands of native flora—like river red gums and paperbarks—shade the water, providing refuge for birds such as kingfishers and egrets.

The river is alive with the subtle sound of water flowing around submerged rocks, punctuated occasionally by the splash of a waterbird or the rustle of a wallaby in the brush. Riverlake Discoveries has crafted this experience with accessibility and sustainability front of mind. The shallow, calm stretches of the Mitchell River make waterbiking safe and enjoyable, even for beginners and families.

The business operates with a strong emphasis on environmental respect—minimizing impact while inviting guests to immerse themselves in the untouched beauty of the region. Their team handles all equipment, life jackets, and safety briefings thoroughly, ensuring confidence and peace of mind. For outdoor travelers looking to add a different dimension to their East Gippsland itinerary, this half-hour trip offers instant immersion into this river’s refreshing serenity.

Whether it’s spotting wildlife, absorbing rare riverine vistas, or simply feeling the waterbike’s quiet glide, Riverlake Discoveries turns a simple ride into an intimate journey through a remarkable corner of Australia’s natural heritage.
