Welcome to Western Australia! Your adventure starts in the coastal town of Walpole. Head off on your first ride this afternoon. A scenic and generally flat ride around the Walpole and Nornalup inlets with a couple of small hills awaits you for your first introduction to the Munda Biddi. After the ride, you’ll check into your accommodation in Walpole. Enjoy a warm shower before dinner, cooked by your tour leaders.
Day 2: Munda Biddi Guided Cycling
Straight after breakfast you will head out on a ride filled with variety – sand, gravel, bitumen, flat paths and steep hills. As you ride, enjoy vast heath and Karri forests, open farmland and the Jarrah and Marri woodlands. At the end of the day, you’ll also have the opportunity for a short walk around Mt Frankland before heading back to your accommodation in Walpole.
Day 3: Munda Biddi Guided Cycling
This morning’s ride will take you back to where you finished yesterday. Cycle along a gravel road through Karri Forest before reaching a single track for some downhill and gravel/sand riding through woodlands and wet heathland. After morning tea at Fernhook Falls, jump back on your bikes as you continue the sand and gravel single track, through regeneration forest and more wet heathland. Tonight, your leaders will prepare dinner for the last time.
Day 4: Munda Biddi Guided Cycling
Today’s ride begins by weaving your way through Karri, Jarrah and Marri Forest. Continue along a gravel road, undulating with short, steep hills before arriving for morning tea at Boorara Tree. The rest of the day you’ll ride through firetrail, singletrack and bitumen through Karri Forest and farmland and even a little bit of Bluegum plantation. The bus will be waiting at the junction of Hill Brook Road as you make your way to your new accommodation in Pemberton.
Day 5: Munda Biddi Guided Cycling
After breakfast, you’ll drive to where you left off yesterday and enjoy a nice long downhill ride to Warren River. After crossing the bridge, the track then takes you uphill. There is a fair amount of undulating single track and old logging railway terrain until you arrive at Gloucester Tree for morning tea. Here you have the option to climb Gloucester Tree. From Gloucester tree it's downhill to Pemberton and then uphill onto bitumen road. In the afternoon you’ll ride along mainly old gravel logging roads through regeneration and Jarrah and Marri Forest with some undulations. You’ll finish your day with a ride through farmland and logging terrain. Tonight, you’ll stay in Pemberton.
Day 6: Munda Biddi Guided Cycling
Start the day off with some undulating hill riding to get to the town of Quinninup. After a short break, enjoy the scenery as you ride the trail through jarrah forest, pine and blue gum plantation before descending to the Warren River where you’ll stop for morning tea. You'll need the energy for the hill that follows, so take your time to listen to the birds and breathe in the forest air. From here, you’ll turn toward Manjimup and wind your way along less hilly tracks and trails. You’ll know your final destination is approaching when you hit the outskirts of town and some bitumen roads, before a last uphill into town. Here, kick off your shoes and enjoy a relaxing picnic lunch in the park. Maybe grab a coffee or have a look around Manjimup before you head back to your accommodation in Pemberton for your last night away.
Day 7: Pemberton to Perth
This morning, you’ll pack up and depending on the group you have the option to climb one of the famous 'Fire Trees' (former fire lookouts built between 1937 and 1952) close to Pemberton or maybe spend the morning in Bridgetown where you can grab a coffee and peruse the shops along the main street. On the way back to Perth you’ll stop in Bunbury where you can buy some lunch, before starting the final stretch with your tired legs and sore cheeks (that's from smiling too much!) At the end of the trip you’ll return to Perth (or Fremantle if requested).
