You can choose an adventure to suit your experience, time frame and interests. From short walks to full day rides, there is something here to suit everyone.
Trails
The mountain bike trails are typically flowing open trails on firm terrain with gentle gradients. Surface may be uneven, loose or muddy at times. Riders may encounter small rollable obstacles and technical trail features. Recommended for beginner mountain bikers. The hiking trails are classified as moderate trails that may have steep sections and rough surfaces. A moderate level of fitness is recommended.
Getting There
The Giants Trails link the towns of Walpole and Nornalup with the Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk. Walpole is 420km south of Perth. There are two main trailheads: the Walpole Trailhead in the centre of Walpole and the Giants Trailhead which is located near the Valley of the Giants Tree Top Walk. Both trailheads have sealed road access, toilets and picnic tables.

Many of the trails are dual use and dual direction. Please be aware of other trail users. The weather can range from hot summers to cold, wet winters. Dress for the weather and carry water and food. Ride or walk with a buddy and be aware that mobile phone reception is not reliable in the forest. Download the trail maps from TrailsWA before you go.
