Here is definitive list of Sydney walking events 2019 and 2020. It’s an event calendar of challenge walks in Sydney and surrounds, including Wollongong and the Central Coast.

Whilst all are challenging, some are true long distance charity walks, with a few 50km or 100km walks for charity.

We update this walking events calendar throughout the year, so depending when you're reading we have 2020 events listed too as new dates are announced.

You'll find something to suit everybody, from virtual pedometer walking events to overnight challenges. There are some running events included because they offer entries especially for walkers.

Sydney Charity Walking Challenges We've Completed

Over the years Ian has completed three Oxfam Trailwalkers, two Michael Tynan Memorial Challenges, two Walk with Lifehouse, Walk for Kids with Cancer, and the Five Lands Walk as his chosen walks for charity.

We've both run, but not walked, the Sutherland 2 Surf and the City 2 Surf.

On each occasion Ian has completed Oxfam Trailwalker, it has been the 100km walk Sydney. This is the only remaining Sydney 100km walks for charity. There are other long distance charity walks, with Coastrek also offering an event of more than 50km.
