Barrington Outdoor Adventures is dedicated to providing wilderness adventures with canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking & abseiling tours. We also offer canoe and kayak hire, transport to and from the river, catering and expert knowledge on the environment and history of the Gloucester and Barrington Tops region. We supply the latest, well-maintained, quality equipment, all meals are freshly prepared on site and our experienced guides are enthusiastic about their environment. Our business is a family business of long standing and is Gloucester’s oldest tourism operator. It was started as the Billabong Bush Centre in 1983 by Matthew Kilby, and became Barrington Outdoor Adventure Centre when taken over by his brother Brian Kilby in 1995. Canoe Barrington was purchased and absorbed in 2009. At BOAC, we have always been passionate about our environment and have tried to minimise our impact on the earth. Our organization has extensive local knowledge and guides trained in our environmental policy to ensure that you can have an adventure of a lifetime without damaging the gifts that nature has given us. In growing our business we are aware of our obligations to both our customers and future generations. We believe that our rivers and forests belong to all and it is our aim to ensure that these beautiful areas remain that way.

Access Point Description:
This access road can be tricky to find. It is a gated, grass laneway between two properties, Karinya at 542 Barrington East Road and 548 Barrington East Road. Be sure not to take either of the private property driveways and please respect private landholders. Please leave gates as you find them (ie close the gate behind you if you find it closed). Drive 350m along the grass laneway to the river (it looks as if you are driving through a paddock). Pass the gum trees and park near the pump shed. Please note it can be very boggy here in wet weather. Access to the river is down a steep bank to the water's edge.Â
