MTB de femme returns to Falls Creek in 2022
The MTB de femme may have taken a break, but the weekend getaway is back in 2022.
After a two year absence, the MTB de femme weekend is returning to Falls Creek, Victoria from on 4-6 March in 2022. The concept and drive for the event is getting more women riding the trails at Falls Creek, all in a safe, friendly and supportive environment. While there are plenty of women's only events and ride days, there's no other women's only mountain bike festival – so the MTB de femme has her own place on the calendar in this regard.
For 2022, the original event founder Jo Prothero and event co-ordinator Xena Pahina will be running the event.
It's not uncommon for many women to have a sub-optimal first riding experience, be it on a partners' old bike, or taking a rider new to the trails on a ride that might be above their current ability. It can be off-putting.
MTB de femme is all about getting out on the bike, having a laugh, learning a few new skills, and connecting with like-minded women. with coffee, lunch and champagne added to the mix!
‘There is something for everyone’ says founder Jo Prothero. 'You can sign up for the social ride aspect, a full day, right the way through to the entire weekend’
Falls Creek isn't short on accommodation options, so you can be completely immersed in the weekend in the mountains.

‘We are super pumped to be getting back out on the trails at Falls with lots of familiar faces and encourage you to book early so you don’t miss out on this rad weekend’.
Tickets will be on sale soon, from $10 to $279 per person. Get more details on the event page.
