Cycling

Western Australia is a great place to explore by bicycle. The climate is sunny and much of the terrain is flat. Perth and some of the larger regional centres have excellent networks of paths and on-road facilities for cyclists. You can bring your own bike or hire/buy one when you arrive.

The Department for Planning and Infrastructure has an excellent cycle tourism section on its website with maps for around 30 recreational cycle routes around the south west of the State and 10 mountain bike trails.  It also provides good information regarding bike hire outlets, public transport and safety tips for cycling.

The most popular trails are highlighted on this site.
