Will explores the Kalamunda Mountain Bike Trails, discovering why the Perth Hills have become Western Australia's premier destination for mountain biking.

• Located at Camel Farm in Kalamunda, the trail network is the largest mountain biking destination in Western Australia, with more than 60 kilometres of purpose-built trails.
• Just 40 minutes from Perth's CBD, the network caters to riders of all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to experienced mountain bikers.
• The trails are built and maintained by the volunteer-run Kalamunda Mountain Bike Collective, whose members have developed and cared for the network for many years.
• Visitors without their own equipment can hire bikes, receive coaching and join guided rides through Rock 'n' Roll Mountain Biking, located at the trailhead.
• The Shake, Rattle 'n Roll Skills Loop provides beginners with an interactive learning environment, featuring instructional signage that teaches climbing, cornering, berms and obstacle techniques.
• Popular trails include Camel Train for novice riders looking to build confidence, while the Black Stump Pump Track offers a fun skills area suitable for riders of all ages.
• Trails are graded using the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) rating system, making it easy for riders to choose tracks suited to their experience level.
• Beyond mountain biking, the surrounding Perth Hills offer walking trails, native bushland and nature experiences, making Kalamunda an ideal destination for outdoor recreation and adventure.
