Bike Trails
Get the cogs turning at the Mount Lennard Mountain Bike Network, near Pile Road in the Wellington National Park.
Mount Lennard or Pile Road as it’s known to the majority of mountain bikers is a fun area of trails that are for the most part built on a very gentle slope.
The singletrack Grizzly trail is one of the more popular and technical trails of the collection; it weaves through the Jarrah forest providing more than enough obstacles, jumps and berms to keep even the most experienced riders on their toes.
