Let’s Go Enduro!
A popular stop on the WA Gravity Enduro tour, Pemberton Mountain Bike Park sits among tall Karri Trees conveniently close to Pemberton Town Centre and its amenities. Held in April, we are on the hunt for primo riding conditions with grippy ‘hero-dirt’ if we see some rain before the event.
Competitors often take the opportunity to explore the nearby area, stocking up on local produce and soaking in the laid-back atmosphere of the region.
The Venue
Get ready to ride Pemberton Mountain Bike Park—one of WA’s premier MTB destinations, packed with epic trails, breathtaking forest scenery, and world-class race-ready terrain! Nestled among towering karri trees, this park offers everything from fast, flowy descents to technical rock gardens and massive berms, making it perfect for riders of all skill levels.
With a pump track, jumps, and well-maintained facilities, it’s the ultimate venue for thrilling races and unforgettable events. Whether you’re here to compete or just send it with your mates, Pemberton delivers the perfect mix of adrenaline and adventure!
The Pemberton MTB Park is proudly managed by the Pemberton Cycling Association with support from the Pemberton Visitor Centre and Shire of Manjimup.

Organisation
Time required to bring together all facets of the Event.
Advertising
Facebook advertising, video reels and highlights, maps, website design, signage, Instagram feeds, YouTube clips take time and fees.
Sign-posted and Bunted Course
Arriving early to setup the course. This usually involves multiple people over hours or days ensuring bunting, signage and timing equipment are in place for easy navigation and fair racing.
Event Health Services
Your Entry Fee covers St John Ambulance Services being on-site for both Saturday and Sunday. We typically employ 4 x Technicians and engage with St John months in advance
Toilets
Typically, our Events exceed the venue existing facilities. Regional Services are engaged months in advance to deliver toilets. Hire costs continue to grow as Waste Management Fees continue to increase.
Race Village
It takes time to design the Race Village to enable our awesome Sponsors to arrive and setup in suitable locations to suite their needs. Careful attention to Parking, Pedestrians and Riders is needed for the safe and accessible movement of all attendees and event crew.
Applications and Insurances
Typically, several Stakeholders need to be engaged months in advance of any Event. We liaise with Local Governments, State Departments, Auscycling, Local Residents and Trail Custodians to act in the best interests of all parties while balancing a safe and exciting experience for our Community. Fees are required for Insurance and Event Applications.
Prizes, Gift Vouchers, Subsidies
We typically donate $5 per rider at each event back to the trail custodians, offer more than $2,500 in Event Gift Vouchers to podium winners and offer $750 to our Elite Men and Women winners. We offer free entries to our Marshals, pay for professional services including multiple Photographers and Videographers and assist with fuel, food and accommodation costs for our Crew.
World's Best Timing System
Our Timing System is considered the World’s Best as used at the Enduro World Series. Yearly licensing, hardware and software upgrades are continuous. Additionally, we send our timing bands back to Germany as required for battery replacements at considerable expense.
Continued Development
Once the essential Event costs are accounted for, we continue to research new ways to improve Results, Live Broadcasts, Mobile Phone Apps, data presentation, website development, manage existing equipment and improve our systems with the aim for a better experience for Competitors, Spectators and our Crew.
