Give your time and help make a very special difference in our local community.
The Great Aussie Hike is a supportive, non-competitive walking event that brings people together for an unforgettable day on the Mornington Peninsula.
This year, our event is raising funds to provide 1,000 Christmas gifts for children and teenagers who might otherwise go without.
And we need a wonderful team of volunteers to help make the day possible.

No event experience is required. Weโll provide the information, support and guidance you need.
