WALKING FOR MENTAL HEALTH
Coastrek is Australia’s premier hiking challenge for women. The Melbourne Coastrek route journeys along some of the wildest and most rugged coastal trails in the world.
Choose your adventure: walk 60km or 30km along some of Australia’s most spectacular coastlines to get fit with friends and raise funds for mental health. From Cape Schanck to Point Nepean, you’ll explore the craggy, dramatic cliffs, wild oceans and secluded bays of this glorious natural wonderland. Enjoy nature at its finest.
Join thousands of wild women (and a few awesome men!) in teams of four as we immerse ourselves in nature for an epic adventure of fun, fitness, friends and fundraising, proudly supporting Beyond Blue.

YOUR EVENT GUARANTEE
We want you to feel confident you will get to enjoy a fabulous Event Day after all your juggling, training, and fundraising. To make this possible, we have several alternatives if there is a government directive that disrupts your Coastrek event.
Firstly, we will immediately pivot together to an independent team Coastrek event. This will take place on the same date, with the option to carry over to the weekend if necessary. Teams complete their Coastrek on a COVID-Safe route of their choosing, together with a virtual community and supported online by the Coastrek team.
If additional restrictions (such as stay-at-home orders) are in place, you will be able to complete your event in increments throughout the following week. #TogetherApart
If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected. But when it comes to Coastrek, you can also expect to have lots of fun, epic vibes and support every step of the way. Whether we’re cheering you across the finish line in person or online, we’ll be here for you on 21 May when you take the Coastrek challenge.

How our charity walks in Melbourne work
Melbourne – a little slice of Europe down under. The fashion, art, and culinary capital of the country. A bustling cultural hub filled with inspiring, creative, and passionate women. It’s these women that make our Melbourne event such a roaring success.
During our charity walks, Melbourne locals get together to improve their fitness, have a ball, and raise much-needed funds.
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 Melbourne event. Just remember, at least two of the four must be women.
- 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 60 or 30km hike.
Get fit, have fun, raise funds with our Melbourne event
When it comes to our charity walks Melbourne 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.
To help you and your team enjoy the epic adventure that awaits, we’ve put together an easy-to-follow 12-week training program.
So, what are you waiting for? Challenge yourself.
