Fundraise for Vision Australia and Seeing Eye Dogs

Support Vision Australia in our mission to empower individuals who are blind or have low vision. Join us for a special fundraising event and help us make a real difference. Together, we can create a brighter future for everyone.

Trek for Vision 2026

In May 2026, 16 amazing fundraisers are embarking on this trek along the Great Ocean Walk, experiencing some of the most iconic scenery in Australia - from deserted beaches and coastal dunes to sheer limestone cliffs and towering mountain ash forests.

The region teems with wildlife: koalas, kangaroos, fur seals, black cockatoos, and more. With luck, they’ll spot some of these local residents along the way.

Over 35 kilometres, they’ll soak in the raw beauty of the Twelve Apostles and their breathtaking surrounds.

Registration for this adventure is now closed, but you can support the team with their fundraising via the button below. All funds raised will support people who are blind or have low vision. 

Interested in trekking with us in 2027? Contact Lauren on Lauren.Lynch@visionaustralia.org.au for more information on our next adventure or put yourself on the waitlist at:  https://inspiredadventures.com.au/event/visionaustralia-threecapes-2027-waitlist/
