Take a Walk on the Wild Side
Our newest Coastrek boasts less sand than our classic locations (perhaps a welcome relief for those who’ve trekked our coastal events previously!) but will bring the same vibrant Coastrek energy to the heart of Australia’s bush capital. Get your team of four together for an epic trek around Canberra’s iconic Lake Burley Griffin where cultural landmarks combine with natural bushland surrounds and a stunning Autumn backdrop.

- Kim W, 2023.
"I loved every step – the group, the talking, the beauty of the route. And as you turned the corner of the finish line – the enthusiasm of the volunteers proving you are part of something bigger!"
- Kerry R, 2022.
"The set-up at the end was INCREDIBLY high vibe. The entire day was so well thought out and it was clear how much had been put into creating such a well-functioning and great day!"

How our charity walks at Canberra work
Our Canberra event offers two thrilling distances, a Twilight 20km and 30km route, taking you on a scenic journey around the stunning Lake Burley Griffin. Embrace the beauty of the capital city's iconic landscapes while making a positive impact on the lives of those affected by heart disease.
Whether you're an avid walker or a fitness enthusiast seeking a new challenge, this event is designed to push your limits and leave you with a sense of adventure.
Here’s a quick overview of how you can get involved with our challenge event:
- First, form a team of four. Grab friends, family, even work colleagues and invite them to take part in the Coastrek Canberra event.
- Pledge to raise $2,000 as a team. It might sound like a lot, but it’s only $500 per person.
- Get your creative juices flowing. Come up with fun, out-of-the-box fundraising ideas you and your team can use to meet your goal.
- Complete the walk, whether you and your team decided to take on the 20km or 30km charity walk.
Get fit, have fun, raise funds with our Canberra event
When it comes to our charity walks Canberra teams are not competing. The goal isn’t to ‘beat’ other hikers – our challenge event is about empowering women to push themselves, to step outside of their comfort zones, and have fun and make a difference in the process.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to combine fun, fitness, friendship, and fundraising. Register now for our Canberra charity walk and be part of a rewarding 12 week fitness program that not only challenges you but also supports a cause that truly matters.
So, what are you waiting for? Challenge yourself.
