Location and features
Formed by the confluence of the Buckeye Creek and Nolan Creek, the Morses Creek rises within the Great Dividing Range, at an elevation exceeding 500 m above sea level. The river flows generally north by northwest all of its course through the remote mountains, joined by three minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Ovens River at the town of Bright. The river descends 198 m over its 16 km course.

Bright was originally named Morse's Creek. The name was changed to Bright in 1861 after British statesman John Bright, who lived from 1811 to 1889.
