Adventure hits different when it’s fuelled by fresh air, fierce women, a little bit of grit and of course, a thigh-burning stretch of sand! From hiking breathtaking coastlines to sharing stories of extraordinary women testing the limits in the outdoors, we’re all about taking on new challenges and doing it together - loud, proud, and unapologetically bold.
That’s why we’re thrilled to announce Coastrek’s partnership with the Gutsy Girls Adventure Film Tour - a celebration of female adventurers pushing the limits and redefining what’s possible. Aligned with our mission to connect, coach and champion women in the outdoors, we're proud to support these incredible stories that celebrate the grit, growth and wild-hearted courage of women doing life their way. 
Coastrek Founder, Di Westaway OAM, a passionate advocate for women in the outdoors, is thrilled to celebrate this milestone moment and to shine a light on the power of female-led adventure through the partnership with Gutsy Girls:
“Back in 2009, when we held the very first Coastrek event, women were vastly underrepresented in outdoor adventure and endurance spaces, and we set our sights on changing this. It’s so exciting to see how far we’ve come, and this partnership with Gutsy Girls is a powerful way to celebrate how women are not just participating - but thriving, breaking barriers, and inspiring us all to embrace a life of bold adventure.”
Now in its ninth year, the 2025 Gutsy Girls Adventure Film Tour is back with a brand-new collection of raw, real, and inspiring stories from fearless women across the globe. The 2½ hour cinematic experience features eight adrenaline-charged short films celebrating the unstoppable spirit of outdoor exploration and adventure. 
Whether descending snowy peaks, gravity defying mountain biking, or diving into hidden worlds beneath the surface, these fearless females will have you laughing, crying (in a good way!) and booking your next outdoor adventure.
Founder and CEO of Adventure Reels, Jemima Robinson, said she’s looking forward to inspiring more women by sharing these unique stories:
“Much like Coastrek, the Gutsy Girls Adventure Film Tour is a celebration of resilience, adventure, and connection - a rallying cry for all women to step outside their comfort zone and into their power.”
The 2025 Gutsy Girls Adventure Film Tour will screen across Australia and New Zealand throughout August – visit www.gutsygirlsadventurefilmtour.com.au for dates and tickets to an inspiring evening of adventure.
