Pemby West - Wet Season is a year-round route that avoids the Dry Season route's river crossings at Power Rd and Collins Rd.
IMPORTANT: The dry season route is only safe in Summer and Autumn, but may be unsafe at any time after heavy rains.
This route starts with a bitumen transport section down Seven Day Rd before hitting the gravel. It features a 3.5km single trail section pruned specifically for trail and adventure bikes before heading across Vasse Highway and south.
The wet season trail then takes in the picturesque Heartbreak Trail, before a cruisy ride into Pemberton where fuel, food and drink is available.
The route back to Manjimup is a flowy mix of gravel roads including the Rainbow Trail and Brook Rd before a northern excursion to the historic town of Deanmill.
This trail is fun on both enduro and adventure bikes. There are some sand sections on Jasper Rd - hence the Blue difficulty rating.
