Wild Women in Australia 2025

The Wild Women (WW) story started in South Africa in 2012 when a group of friends organised to run the Wild Coast in a safe, supportive and inexpensive way. The plan was the friends would create a fun, non-competitive and nurturing environment for women to go out and have a cool multi-day adventure in a place of astounding natural beauty.

In 2017 while living in Beijing, the dream of running Wild Women along the majestic Great Wall of China was conceived and Wild Women on the Wall (WWoTW) was born. I participated in the first WWoTW held in April 2019 with 24 other ladies representing 12 nationalities brought together largely due to their life in Beijing, fundraising for two charities specifically focusing on children. This WWoTW 2019 was a huge success with RMB 144,877 (NZD~32,000) raised.

Play it forward 5 years and I took part in Wild Women in Europe (WWEU) joining 24 other women to cover ~110kms run/walking along part of the Camino, Spain in October 2024. We raised €20,250 (NZD ~37,000)

April 2025 I will participate in the first Wild Women Australia event along the stunning Perth coastline on the Cape to Cape walk. We will again fundraise for the WW core charities.

Each Wild Woman is required to pay her own way with all funds raised donated to the selected charities. Every donation, irrelevant of value, makes a direct difference to these charities.
