A Celebration of Global Unity

The Canberra AussiePeaceWalk is truly an international event. Locals will walk alongside participants from around the world, creating a vibrant tapestry of cultures and traditions. Each walker proudly representing their country or cultural heritage by wearing traditional clothing or carrying a small flag on their clothing or backpack.

Imagine a sea of colours, patterns, and symbols from every corner of the globe, all united in one meaningful community event.

It’s a beautiful reminder that while we come from different places, we walk together toward a common goal.

Mingle Walks are NOT races

Mingle Walks are about connection, not competition. This event is an opportunity to get outdoors and experience Australia’s National Capital with like-minded community members. Walk at your own pace, stop to chat, take in the scenery, and enjoy the journey.

It’s about the people you meet and the memories you make along the way.

Sign up for the AussiePeaceWalk and get ready to have a blast while supporting a great cause.

Walking for Vulnerable Youth

The 2027 AussiePeaceWalk proudly supports the Rotary Vulnerable Youth Project, helping to create positive pathways and opportunities for young people facing challenges in our community.

Every step you take makes a real difference in the lives of youth who need support the most.

Walk with purpose: Your entry in the 7km AussiePeaceWalk will help our vulnerable youth, but you can also support another charity by set-up a fundraising page to support a charity of your choice.
