Launch of Walk for Wild fundraiser to Regenerate Australia with WWF

The World Wide Fund for Nature Australia (WWF-Australia) and Tasmanian Walking Company (TWC) have joined forces once again to raise funds for Regenerate Australia, the largest and most innovative wildlife and landscape regeneration program in Australia’s history. After achieving a remarkable fundraising milestone of $115,000 during its inaugural event in 2022, the Walk for Wild event series has now made its highly anticipated return offering guests the opportunity to be a part of a defining moment for the future of Australia’s environment.

Guests will experience one of TWC’s four award-winning guided walks each tailored to showcase Australia’s diverse landscapes – from the rugged coastal cliffs of the Great Ocean Walk to the pristine rainforests of the Overland Track. As you traverse these awe-inspiring trails, your contribution will generate crucial funds for Regenerate Australia projects, ensuring a thriving future for these precious ecosystems.

“Walk for Wild exemplifies our ongoing commitment to inspiring positive changes in conservation, lending support to projects with genuine and tangible results,” said Brett Godfrey, co-owner of Tasmanian Walking Company.

“At the heart of this conservation cause lies a wonderful partnership with WWF-Australia, united by a shared vision to drive change and promote a deep appreciation for Australia’s natural landscapes. Together, we are supporting initiatives to rewild Australia through reintroducing lost species to natural environments and the restoring of ecosystems to create more resilient landscapes “.

TWC will donate 100% of all sales from the Walk for Wild event, making it a perfect opportunity to enjoy the health and wellbeing benefits of walking in Australia’s remote wilderness areas and leaving a legacy on the places and communities visited.

Kathryn Birch, Senior Manager Impact Partnerships at WWF-Australia said, “WWF-Australia are thrilled to be partnering with Tasmanian Walking Company on Walk for Wild. Last year, walkers helped to support our critical work rehabilitating and restoring wildlife and habitats and building resilience against climate disasters. We look forward to making an even bigger impact this year through Walk for Wild.”
