The trip

Two days of jarrah single track, ocean sessions and the kind of experiences that get the heart rate up.

Ride first. Dive in later.

Day One

Ferguson Valley trails

Dardanup & Ferguson Valley

Mount Lennard Mountain Bike Network

Start early at Pile Road, where technical single track winds through jarrah forest. Choose from blue and black trails, or stick to the gentler sections if you're riding with confident younger riders.

Mount Lennard includes a mix of moderate and difficult trails, with technical features, berms, jumps and more organic single track than the newer machine-built networks.

Dardanup Tavern

Trade the bike for a cold drink and a country pub lunch in Dardanup before heading west.

Gnomesville

Not exactly high adrenaline, but a fun detour, especially if younger travellers are along for the ride. Stretch the legs and find the weirdest gnome you can.

Day Two

Saltwater finish

Bunbury

Dolphin Discovery Centre Swim Tour

Start the day in the water with Bunbury's wild bottlenose dolphins. The guided swim heads into Koombana Bay, with dolphins choosing whether to approach and interact.

Bookings are essential and tours are weather dependent.

Family option: younger travellers or anyone who'd rather stay dry can explore the Dolphin Discovery Centre or take a dolphin cruise instead.

Back Beach

Swap the fins for a board and see what Back Beach is doing. It's one of Bunbury's go-to surf spots, with swimming and beginner-friendly waves when conditions line up.

Check the conditions before heading in.

Froth Craft Brewery

Finish back in the city with a late lunch or early dinner and something cold after a day in the water.
