How do I train for this adventure? 

We will provide you with information on how to prepare for your adventure when you register. In addition, we recommend that you consult your GP and a personal trainer to develop a training plan that will prepare you for the challenge.

As part of your training, we recommend making use of your free time to complete several day hikes. You should aim to be able to walk in sandy and hilly terrain for 5+ hours comfortably.

It is sensible to start training as early as possible before you go on your trek.

What is the accommodation like? 

You will be staying in motel accommodation based on twin-share, set within a private nature refuge. Each room has a bathroom containing a toilet, shower and basin. Each room also contains a microwave, mini fridge, kettle and toaster. 

Will I be sharing accommodation?

Accommodation on this adventure is based on twin-share. You will be staying in self-contained motel accommodation. You will be paired with a teammate of the same gender and, whenever possible, age group. Single supplements are subject to availability at an extra cost.

I’m travelling with a friend, can we stay together?

Absolutely! If you’re travelling with a friend, please make note of this and we will pair you together.

I have dietary requirements, will I be catered for? 

Of course, we will happily arrange for any dietary requirements you’ve noted during booking to be catered for. Please advise your local guide on Day 1 as well. You will be fed very well while you’re on the adventure, but if you have a very specific dietary requirement or severe allergies, often it’s best to pack some extra things as back-up.

What happens if there is a medical emergency?

Providing the safest possible environment is our highest priority and we have an outstanding safety record. All Inspired Adventures guides are first aid trained and well-equipped to handle any medical emergencies.

How do I fundraise?

Never fundraised before? Not sure where to start? No worries, we don’t expect you to do it alone. You will have regular support from the Inspired Adventures fundraising team, who will help you make a fundraising plan to meet your target. Alongside personalised coaching, we will also send you lots of ideas and resources on how to fundraise. From online fundraising to trivia nights, to bake sales and out-of-the-box ideas, we have years and years of tried and tested tips to make your fundraising a success.

What happens if I don’t meet my fundraising target? 

It’s normal to worry you won’t meet your fundraising target, but we know you can do it. In fact, with the support of Inspired Adventures, almost everyone goes on to raise far more than they imagined. By registering for the adventure, you agree to raise the minimum fundraising amount specified. Like you, we are looking to make a significant impact for our charity partners, so the goal is for each person to have met their fundraising target before departure. If you fail to raise the minimum fundraising target by this time, we will review the situation on a case-by-case basis.

I’m travelling with a friend, can we fundraise together? 

Absolutely! Fundraising with a friend is a great idea. Just remember the fundraising target is per person, so you will each need to meet the minimum fundraising goal to participate. We know you can do it.

Will the funds raised go directly to Cherish Women’s Cancer Foundation? 

Yes, all of your fundraising will go directly to Cherish Women’s Cancer Foundation. Only the travel costs are payable to Inspired.

Is my donation tax-deductible?

The funds raised for Cherish Women’s Cancer Foundation are tax-deductible (conditions apply).

How much does it cost to participate in this adventure? 

The total cost to participate in this adventure is $1,195 (inclusive of a $950 non-refundable deposit).

In addition, you are also committing to raising $1,000 (per person) for Cherish Women’s Cancer Foundation.

What happens if I need to cancel?

If you find yourself unable to attend, please notify us as soon as possible.

Cancellation within 5 days of registration will receive a full refund.

Cancellations more than 90 days prior to departure will receive a full refund minus the $475 deposit.

Cancellations within 90 days of departure will receive no refund. Where applicable, we can assist in making a travel insurance claim.

Do I need to have insurance?

Travel insurance is highly recommended for domestic adventures to cover cancellation, hospital, emergency evacuation and lost luggage. We recommend purchasing your policy as soon as possible. It is up to you to ensure you have fully comprehensive travel insurance and you will need to share these details with our team before departure.
