Coastrek Sunshine Coast 2026

Coastrek Sunshine Coast is a July team trekking challenge on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, offering 20km, 30km, and 50km routes that conclude in Mooloolaba. It is a long coastal hike rather than a typical road race, requiring teams of at least two people. The event was established to encourage more women to engage in outdoor activity, although men participate as well. It connects the day’s walk with fundraising for Beyond Blue and mental health support. The 50km route extends from Noosa to Mooloolaba, the 30km begins at Coolum, and the 20km starts at Marcoola. Participants navigate Sunshine Coast beaches, headlands, and coastal paths. The longer distances provide extended periods on the sand and alongside the sea. Typically, thousands of trekkers participate in groups of friends, charity teams, and fitness clubs, with each participant having a minimum fundraising goal.
