Dwellingup
Enjoy a morning riding through one of the most beautiful parts of the state! The Marrinup/Dwellingup MTBO event is in score format; you will have 4 hours to visit as many controls as you like on WA's largest orienteering map.
From the Visitor Centre in Dwellingup, you can either go out for the full 4 hours, or come back for a recharge and enjoy the cafe!
There will be lots of controls within a 3 km radius of the start, so the event is well suited to beginners, families, and even runners. E-bikes welcome! Want to do a bit of trail running? Runners are also welcome!
No bike, no problem! You can hire a mountain bike or e-bike right from the start location for $35 (bookings at http://dwellingupadventures.com.au/mountain-bike-and-camping-equipment-hire/).
Mass start at 9 am, and everybody should be back 4 hours later (or earlier) by 1 pm.
Pre-entry is encouraged, but on the day entry is possible (before 8:30 am, otherwise after the 9 am mass start).
Newcomers get a free entry for the next event!
