Get ready to take on your next challenge! We’re thrilled to introduce Hike the Light, our new series of ‘race the sun’ treks.

Taking place in states across Australia, these events will see participants take on the challenge of hiking from sunrise and pushing themselves to complete the route before the sun sets the same day.

Our NSW Hike the Light route takes you right to the heart of bush walking in the state; the Blue Mountains National Park. This diverse 27km trail will cover off many of the main attractions this beautiful area has to offer; including the Leura Cascades, the Prince Henry Clifftop Walk, the Golden Staircase and the ever-popular Echo Point, home of the Three Sisters.

You’ll be trekking alongside an inspirational young person supported by CanTeen, so you’ll learn first-hand the difference you can make, whilst taking on this challenge together.

So, whether you’re an avid bushwalker or a trekking newbie, with a range of distances, scenery and terrain there’s something for everyone, and we’d love to have you on board.

Sign up here.
