The Munda Biddi is one of the most amazing natural experiences Western Australia has to offer; paralleling the world famous Bibbulmun Track. Munda Biddi means ‘path through the forest’ in the Nyoongar Aboriginal Language. The trail promises to become a world-class nature-based off-road cycling experience, rivalling internationally renowned trails, with its enormous 900 kilometre length.
 

The trail was originally founded, in partnership, by a small group of individuals, who were passionate about developing an interesting wilderness trail for bikes, and a number of governmental/semi governmental agencies and the local communities. The WA Department of Conservation and Land Management and the Munda Biddi Foundation have also played major roles.

 

The track commences in Mundaring and meanders beautifully through an undeveloped natural corridor. Western Australia’s spectacular characteristics make this trail ideal, and a great adventure. Vast forests, untouched bushland, temperate cycling climate, and gentle terrain promise for Munda Biddi to be a fantastic natural escape and a real winner. Munda Biddi has received the bronze award at the WA Tourism Awards (2007), an amazing achievement for a first time entrant.
 

The trail boasts bush tracks, firebreaks, and an old railway line. Most of the trail is on gentle grades to suit all cycling abilities and paces; yet there are challenging loops and spurs for those keen cyclists. The trail offers variety in abundance; each day will vary from the next. Travel through towering eucalyptus forests or ancient bushlands. Explore new species of plant and wildlife, not found anywhere else in the world. Learn about Aboriginal culture and the native ways. Camp at one of the Munda Biddi sleeping shelters along the trail; or enjoy stating in one of the quaint towns along the way.

 

The trail is conserved by two organisations; the Department of Conservation and Land Management and the Munda Biddi Trail Foundation. The Munda Biddi Trail Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that has been formed to assist in the ongoing development and maintenance of the trail. The foundation aims to represent the community that will be using the trail; enlisting paid memberships, fundraising, business sponsorships, and community liaison to generate awareness of the trail. The foundations primary role is to encourage cyclists to use the trail and ensure that it is an enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

 

The Munda Biddi Trail is a magnificent experience; the vast and captivating landscape of WA ensures a beautifully scenic adventure. Engage in Mother Nature’s playground and experience the ultimate rejuvenating getaway – the Munda Biddi Trail.
