MTB Guidebook

MTB Guidebook Finding and curating places to ride in Australia. Western Australian and Tasmanian guide books. We wrote the guide. We've done all the hard work for you.

We were sick of wasting time, energy, fuel and our precious weekends chasing singletrack on a rumour. So we embarked on documenting ALL the places to ride and make the guidebook we wanted. Getting off a plane new to state with no knowledge and want to spend your time enjoying the ride rather than making rookie mistakes? Suggested itinerary, state highlights, bike setup, recommended tyres for our t

reacherous soil, mobile phone coverage by carrier. Trails are divided into Cross country, Downhill, Freeride and even the more relaxed long distance trails (ie rail trails). So relax and enjoy the ride and discover this amazing place.

So a fun MTB trail loop at Boddington made it into our first guidebook around 2010 before it was consumed into the mining area. It will be great to go out and ride this pretty area again.

A major milestone in the Boddington Mountain Bike Park project has been reached, with approval received for the Clearing Permit required for construction. Construction of the trail network is scheduled to commence in September, and the Shire has begun upgrading access roads and parking areas to supp...

Some photos we got before the Esperance jumps were opened. The dirt line looks like a warm up, intro line to the bitumen lines. Lalor Park.

Whitfords West Pump and Jump tracks are now open! Last time we were there only the kiddie track (on the right of the picture) was open. Google Maps is pretty up to date with their image. Parking can be a bit tricky.

The new South Guildford Jump track is open for laps. 2 lines, a very approachable easier line with flat tabletop jumps (left) and a more advanced line on the right. Both have 3 jumps on them and as you can see the jumps have lots of room between them. The old Butler road jumps are circled in red. These have been closed and fenced off for a couple of years now due to asbesto contamination. Access off the Great Eastern Highway bypass and park on Butler Road.

It was always a bit sad to see the fenced off jumps at the Great Eastern Bypass road due to asbestos contamination. The good news is these jumps have just been open next to them. If you know where the old jumps were on Barker Road in South Guilford you'll see these jumps a couple hundred metres away.

World class has to be the most abused term in mountain biking nowadays. It's great Dwellingup is getting more trails, but looking after the ones already built would elevate the riding experience here.

Mountain bikers now have 108 kilometres of world-class trails to explore in Dwellingup, following the completion of a multi-million-dollar trail expansion.

Well we were here a couple of weeks ago but figured we shouldn't be promoting a place with construction fencing up. Weird the Shire is so keen. But here you go. Right next to the Briggs Park cricket club rooms. 99% of riders we saw hit the start as a jump line then short cut back to the start. The wall ride is spicy with a lipped jump before the wall to launch riders onto the wall. As for other reasons MTBs visit Byford.... IYKYK. Oh and Banh Mi's at Banh Mi Byford is almost worth the trip on its own. (Our drone footage is a lot smoother but there was no grass when we were there).

Good to see some progress on trail building in Albany. We're excited.

Good to see some progress on trail building in Albany. We're excited.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with in this project.
Thanks for your expert skills flying over 300 bags of vegetation to be used in trail and ground rehabilitation.
