WE'RE HIKING FOR MENTAL HEALTH
In 2025, Coastrekkers will be hiking for mental health and fundraising for Beyond Blue.
Through our 12-week Training Program and national series of team hiking events, Coastrek can play a vital role in helping people manage anxiety and depression and improve their mental, physical and social wellbeing, while raising funds for the Beyond Blue 24/7 Support Service.
Every step you take with Coastrek can make a real impact on your own mental health and help ensure support is there when needed for those you love and for all Australians.

How our charity walks in the Mornington Peninsula work
Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula – 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 Mornington Peninsula event such a roaring success.
During our charity walks, Mornington Peninsula 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:
- Grab your friends, family members, or colleagues and form a team. Minimum team number is 2 people.
- Commit to raising $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 50km, 30km or 20km hike.
Get fit, have fun, raise funds with our Mornington Peninsula event
When it comes to our charity walks Mornington Peninsula 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.
