Wild Women On Top create community hiking adventures that help women fall in love with fitness. We create Coastrek, Australia’s iconic hiking challenge, which journeys along some of the most spectacular coastlines in the world. We also prepare women for life changing adventures and partner with like-minded brands to reach out boldly and cultivate magic moments that inspire. Adventure, women’s empowerment, community, health, and love of nature are at the heart of everything we do.

Through Coastrek we’ve inspired and empowered over 70,000 women to walk the stunning coastal trails and beaches of Sydney, the Mornington Peninsula, the Sunshine Coast, the Fleurieu Peninsula and Margaret River, and our community has raised nealry $50 million dollars for charity.
