Celebrate Bike Week 2015 by getting the family out and take part in a leisurely guided mountain bike tour around sections of the Munda Biddi and Carinyah Trails in Karragullen on Sunday 22 March.

A shuttle bus will collect you from the City of Armadale Administration Office and return you after the tour. Three tours are running across the day, departing Armadale at 8.30am, 10am and 11.30am. Each guided tour is approximately 45 minutes riding time on an easy terrain. Bikes and safety equipment are all provided, so all you need to bring is a bottle of water and sunscreen.

“Taking a leisurely bike ride through the hills is a fantastic way to see some of the City’s hidden gems. Riders will experience sections of the purpose built Munda Biddi trial, which means ‘path through the forest’ in the Nyoongar language, taking in the stunning surroundings on this trail that stretches from Mundaring to Albany. Riders will also ride through Carinyah Campsite which is nestled in a grove of She-oak trees.

“Bike riding is a great activity for the whole family; it is low-impact exercise that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is also fun, cheap and good for the environment.”
