Who is the Coastrek Charity Partner for 2025?

In 2025, Coastrek will be hiking for mental health, and proudly supporting Beyond Blue.

In Australia, around 5 million people are living with anxiety and depression, and every day, more than 800 people reach out to the Beyond Blue 24/7 Support Service.

Keeping active, connecting with others, exercising in nature and establishing healthy routines can all help prevent and manage anxiety and depression and maintain good mental health.

As a team event, Coastrek fosters connection – with friends and colleagues, with nature and with the community – in fact, it’s essential. Training outdoors as a team for 12 weeks in preparation for a 20km, 30-35km or 50km Event Day hiking challenge alongside a like-minded and engaged community of trekkers is a powerful combination in achieving and maintaining good mental health and wellbeing. 

It also establishes a positive connection with exercise and fitness, forming healthy habits that benefit trekkers way beyond the Coastrek Finish Line. 

Our goal is to get more people moving in nature, raise awareness for mental health and help fund Beyond Blue’s 24/7 Support Service, to ensure everyone in Australia can access the mental health support they need, when they need it.

Every step you take with Coastrek can make a real impact on your own mental health and will help ensure support is there when needed for those you love and for all Australians.
