Over six days, you’ll take on one of Australia’s most iconic and rugged trails – the Larapinta Trail. You’ll walk up to 66km through vast desert plains, ancient ridgelines and sacred  cultural landmarks. You’ll rise before the sun, push through challenging climbs and fall asleep under the stars, knowing every step you take is supporting sick kids and their families.

Join us on the Larapinta Trail in June 2026

Take on one of Australia’s most iconic endurance challenges and change lives along the way. Trek for Sick Kids is a six-day, 66km adventure across the Larapinta Trail in the West MacDonnell Ranges. You’ll rise before dawn, climb rugged ridgelines, cross ancient escarpments and fall asleep under a desert sky. It’s tough, unforgettable, and every step matters.

This trek isn’t just about the challenge. It’s about purpose. Each participant commits to raising $15,000 for the Children’s Hospital Foundation – funding vital medical research, life-saving equipment, and practical support for families in hospital. You’ll be walking for kids like Lachlan, who has faced chronic kidney disease since birth, and for every Queensland child who needs specialist care.

You don’t need to be an elite athlete – just prepared, determined, and ready to test yourself. Along the way you’ll be backed by expert guides, a supportive fundraising team, and a group of like-minded trekkers.

Step up for sick kids. Push beyond your limits. Be part of something bigger.
