For singles, couples, friends, families strangers and groups. Discover Your Own River Story, a DIY adventure:
This is a supported self discovery Experience.
Up The Creek Melbourne is founded on a commitment to the developing connection between Melbourne, its citizens and the lifeblood of our city, the mighty Birrarung. We seek to enable the whole person to thrive, as part of a living system, in the Anthropocene.


You'll create your own adventure on the Birrarung (Yarra River) - with coaching at the start and support available whenever you want it.
We start by setting you up for success. You'll learn paddling skills and plan your route together. Then when you're ready you're free to explore at your own pace, with phone support ready for any questions. Every paddler, from first-timers to weekend enthusiasts, will find something special on the river.
As you make your way downstream, you'll spot curios lifeforms we share Melbourne with. The river transitions from urban spaces to natural corridors, showing how our city evolved alongside this vital water source. Many people find that focusing on paddling helps them tune into nature - spotting birds, appreciating trees, and watching light dance on the water.
At the end of your journey, we'll meet you and help coordinate your return home. There is access to public transport and Taxis the whole way along this section of the river.
This is about giving you space to experience the river your way, with reliable backup always on hand. The Birrarung offers both peaceful moments and exciting exploration - it's ready for you to discover.

"the whole of life is coming to terms with yourself and the natural world."David Attenbrough"


Connecting with the more than human world now, perhaps more than ever before, is important for citizens and the Yarra alike.
