The Capel 200 includes something for every rider. We have the traditional ‘Capel 200 Main Loop’ for all riders, with more challenging ‘Enduro’ sections for more experienced riders.
We’ve also recently carried out a heap of trail restoration work, to improve the trails and reintroduced many older trails that have been rested over recent years, making it one of the best Capel 200 loops ever.

Event Information

More than just a trail ride, the 2023 Capel 200 Trail Bike Rally is a non-competitive event that offers a full day of quality off-road riding on some of the best trails in WA that you can ride at your own pace.

The Capel 200 Loop

Approx. 70 km mixture of 4WD tracks, flowing pine firebreaks and single track trails, with optional ‘Enduro’ sections. It’s open to adult riders of all levels, and you can ride as many laps as you want, with most riders doing 2 or 3 laps.

For riders who want something more serious, there are also a number of 'Enduro' sections at different points on the course, which are optional. They are more technical and challenging, so if you’ve never ridden in an enduro event give them a go and see how you shape up.
