Your effort makes a big impact
We recognise that everyone has different fitness abilities, especially those who are dealing with a cancer diagnosis, so that’s why we have sectioned out A Bloomin' Good Walk into 4 different options:
Walk A, To Steps of the War Memorial (Corner of Cooper's Lookout Car Park). This is the shortest walk along the flat footpath suitable for people with severe mobility issues.
Walk B, To Beach access 212, which is 1.6km return, and is great for those wanting a short, leisurely social walk to talk with family and friends along the way.
Walk C, To Beach access 206, also known as Kawana S Bend, which is a 3.29km return.
Walk D, To and around Point Cartwright Lighthouse, which is just over 5kms return. Suitable for motivated runners and walkers and those also wanting a fitness challenge!
You will be supported on the day by our wonderful team of volunteers and any of these walking routes is an awesome achievement!

Fundraising Impact
By participating you can help Bloomhill raise $50,000 for those impacted by cancer.
We have aimed to keep the walk affordable at $35 to participate (adults) and $15 (children), as this is a family friendly activity, and great for groups of friends. Dogs are welcome!
We are limited to 500 people on the day, so please register early if you can.
You will see you can also have your walk sponsored by friends, family, organisations and businesses – an average sponsorship of $100 per person means we are raising awareness and likely to achieve our fundraising target of $50,000 to help beat cancer!
