100km Charity Hike

We'll traverse the lush and remote rainforest of Paluma, encountering a mix of challenging and picturesque landscapes, making the journey both demanding and visually stunning. The 53-kilometre off-trail section will be our biggest challenge, taking us from Paluma, all the way to Forestry Road in Bluewater and we'll be hiking a good part of this during the night, which has never been attempted before.

You can follow our progress on our dedicated hike Facebook page as we prepare and embark on this fantastic challenge.

Donations in support of our adventurous trek for charity can be made here on our dedicated fundraising page (no cash donations please) and support education, social and health outcomes for North Queenslanders through education-based programs, including NRL Cowboys House.

Donations over $2 are tax-deductible and you'll receive a receipt by email on completion of your donation.

Townsville Hike & Explore has chosen to raise funds for the Cowboys Community Foundation, specifically NRL Cowboys House, because of their commitment to providing education opportunities and support for young Indigenous students from remote communities. This initiative aligns with our values of community support and empowerment.

We encourage everyone to join us in making a difference!
