What a milestone for Nannup! 🌿

Today we were thrilled to celebrate Nannup becoming Western Australia’s third accredited Trail Town, joining Collie and Dwellingup in WA’s growing Trail Town network.
Trail Town accreditation recognises much more than great trails. It looks at the whole experience – trail infrastructure and maintenance, visitor information, community involvement, local businesses, tourism and the connections between the trails and the town itself.

Nannup has built an incredibly strong cycling identity over many years, with experiences spanning gravel and endurance riding, mountain biking and downhill trails.
Today also marked the official opening of Pine Ridge MTB Park, adding a new family-friendly and progression-focused riding experience to Nannup’s already impressive trail offering.

It has taken years of planning, investment, community support and hard work to reach this point. Congratulations to the Shire of Nannup, local businesses, volunteers, community members, government partners and everyone involved in bringing the vision to life.

WA now has three distinctly different Trail Towns to explore – Nannup, Collie and Dwellingup. Visit one for a weekend, or start planning a Trail Town road trip through the South West. 🚵🥾🌿

🌸 Wildflower wanderings through Australia’s South West

The South West is putting on its Djilba and Kambarang colour show—come and see what’s blooming!

More than 8,000 species of wildflowers bloom across the South West region, with around 80% of its plant species found nowhere else on Earth. From tiny orchids hiding on the forest floor to colourful mountain blooms, there’s plenty to discover between now and November.

Ready to go bloom hunting? Here are a few trails to get you started:

⛰️ Stirling Range National Park trail network – With six spectacular trails and more than 1,500 native plant species, this location is a wildflower lover’s playground.

🌼 Wildflower Wander, Kondil Park, Nannup – 3.3km – Wander through jarrah, marri, sheoak and balga bushland, slowing down to search the understorey for delicate spider, donkey, greenhood and snail orchids.

🎨 Understory, Art in Nature, Northcliffe – 1.2km – Wildflowers meet art on this unique forest adventure. Keep your eyes peeled for colourful lobelias and fan flowers, along with spider, helmet and midge orchids emerging from the forest floor.

🌺 Harvey Wildflower Ridge Walk – 1.4km – This gently undulating trail winds past granite outcrops with sweeping views across Harvey Dam and towards the coast. Take your time, enjoy the wildflowers and keep watch for a bright blue wren flitting through the undergrowth.

Remember to admire wildflowers where they grow—stick to the trails, don’t pick the blooms and clean your footwear between locations to help prevent the spread of dieback.
