A popular mountain biking destination for beginners and advanced riders alike due to the gradual hills and fast, flowing singletrack. Recent upgrades by DEC have seen a network of trails signposted making this venue even more attractive newcomers to the sport.
In addition, there are toilets, picnic tables and free gas barbeques near the car park

Most of the trails are very short (less than a km), the better trails are the shorter ones, which is a bit sad.
| ThankWoodleys loop has some nice sections and little jumps.
Watch your head is a quick little section that flows quite well.
The pea gravel is good fun, improves brake control and encourages you to drive hard out of the burms. It is a bit of a pain on some of the climbs.
Typical Perth hills trails, lots of rocks and tight gaps through trees.
Yellow brick road has the best surface and could be much much better.
I used to think I was not a fan of Langford Park because the trails weren't technical enough.
However I now revise that - it is the pea gravel surface when it is dry that I don't like!
In winter, on a cool and damp day - the trails flow nicely and are quite enjoyable. Not always technical, but still enjoyable. This is NOT the case on a hot and dry summers day - when it is just slippery hell.
The published difficulty ratings are well over-stated. Let's assume that is to stop families getting in over their heads.
The "watch your head" trail is my favourite, and the "valley of opportunity" is quite good also.
