Oxfam Trailwalker

The Oxfam Trailwalker is a charity sporting event that involves walking from Pepi’s land in Emerald to the 1000 Steps.

Aside from being one of the toughest physical feats, the walk is rewarding because it aims to raise money to reduce poverty globally.

Your teams’ start wave will be allocated 4-6 weeks from the event weekend. Typically, start waves begin at 7am and are held in 30-minute intervals. The event utilises a first-in, first-served system with all team registrations. Registration requires four team members over 18, a unique name for your team, a commitment to raising a minimum of $1,600 per team, an estimated finish time, and a fundraising category.

The designated team leader is in charge of completing the registration form, and then all team members will get an email to complete their details. All teams of four are required to start and finish together, which requires training and dedication.

The Oxfam Trailwalker was established in Hong Kong in 1981 and has become one of the world’s biggest team sporting events. Over $140 million has already been raised from the walks to support Oxfam in fighting poverty.
