The Area

Forget your map, adventurer. In Nannup, Western Australia’s emerald jewel, you navigate by singletracks and the tang of hops. This historic mill town isn’t just a museum piece; it’s a playground for adrenaline junkies and craft connoisseurs, cradled by the Blackwood River and crowned by ancient karri forests.

Imagine carving through singletrack heaven in Nannup’s Tank 7 Mountain Bike Park. Gnarly drops, playful jumps, and epic berms weave through untouched bush, all serenaded by the wind whispering through the pines. Dust off after an epic descent at a welcoming brewery, savoring a cold, locally brewed “Trail Ale” as you swap stories with fellow dirt demons.

But Nannup’s magic isn’t confined to two wheels. Kayak down the glassy Blackwood, your paddle slicing through mirrored reflections of the forests that whisper tales of timber barons and pioneers. Wander through the Nannup Arboretum, a kaleidoscope of exotic blooms transported from across the globe. Or explore the Bibbulmun Track, a 1,000-kilometer artery meandering through wildflower meadows and whispering gum trees.

When the sun paints the sky in fiery hues, trade your handlebars for a canvas. Nannup’s soul spills from rustic studios into cozy cafes, where locally sourced treats pair perfectly with a cider brewed just down the street. Chat with a fifth-generation farmer at the bustling markets, their hands bearing the stories of the land as they offer freshly picked berries.

As the stars pierce the inky twilight, gather around a crackling bonfire, sharing laughter and stories beneath a canopy of ancient stars. Time flows as freely as the Blackwood in Nannup, inviting you to reconnect with nature, with yourself, and with the simple joy of being.

So, pack your thirst for adventure, your mountain bike, and your empty growler. Nannup isn’t just a destination; it’s a tapestry woven from singletrack trails, aromatic hops, and timeless charm. Come, and let its magic fill your soul.
