Read more about this trail

Grizzly is the highlight of the Mount Lennard mountain bike trails in Wellington National Park, near Collie in Western Australia.

The trail starts from Lennard Rd and descends from Mt Lennard adjacent to Pile Rd and down to the lower trailhead, tightly weaving its way through the mature jarrah forest, and granite outcrops to provide spectacular views of the lower Collie River Valley

The average four percent gradient offers challenges for beginners to old pros with bermed turns and log rides for those who are up for the challenge. 

Return along the Boylan Trail for a 12km loop. Both Boylan and Grizzly are rated Blue.

Wellington National Park protects 25,000 hectares of forest in Western Australia's South West, serving as a critical refuge for threatened native animals and over 300 wildflower species.

The forest is predominantly made up of Jarrah, Marri and Yarri / Blackbutt trees, intersperced with Banksia groves and more open granite outcrops. In the cooler months during late autumn and winter, fungi and mosses can be found throughout the area. In spring, the wildflowers bloom, inlcuding colorful Banksias and Grevilleas, Clematis vines and Darwinia shrubs, and smaller plants such as sundews, triggerplants and orchids. 

Over 150 species of birds live in the area, including Black Cockatoos (Red-tailed, Carnaby's and Baudin's), fairy wrens, robins and Currawongs. Threatened mammals such as the Chuditch (Western Quoll), Quokka, Woylie (Brush-tailed Bettong), Southern Brown Bandicoot, Western Ringtail Possum, and Brush-tailed Phascogale can also be spotted. The park's granite gorges and fallen logs provide excellent camouflage for the Carpet Python.

A few steep climbs and it lacks a bit of Maintenance however, it wasn't crowded and a few cold ones at the Moody Cow afterwards never goes astray.

What fun! We hit this up on the way home from a weekend in Pemberton. Otherwise called Pile Road, there is a network of trails to enjoy here. The loop we did was great fun and had a bit of everything. Bunbury - you are lucky to have this in your backyard!
