Peaks Conquered: Mt Kosciuszko (2,228m), Etheridge Ridge (2,180m), Rams Head North (2,177m)

‍

Our inaugural Three Peaks Challenge was an unforgettable experience, combining adventure, purpose, and life-changing impact. Over three days, a dedicated team of trekkers united to summit three of Australia’s highest peaks, raising over $38,000 for ONE80TC and bringing hope to those on the journey of addiction recovery.

From breathtaking views to powerful personal stories, the event was rich in purpose and community. Trekkers enjoyed high-quality catering, outstanding leadership, and a seamless, all-inclusive experience in the heart of the Snowy Mountains. The challenge also built deep connections among participants and highlighted the resilience and strength needed both on the mountain and in recovery.

Special thanks to our incredible guides from Peak Learning, and to sponsors like Snackbrands, Kathmandu, and MacPac, whose support made a lasting difference.

We’re already looking ahead to the next adventure in March or April 2026 — with exciting improvements and even more opportunities for connection, challenge, and impact.

Josh’s Story: From the Streets to the Summit

"Just two weeks ago, I climbed Mt Kosciuszko with the ONE80TC team — something I never dreamed possible."

Nine months ago, Josh was homeless in Brisbane, caught in the grips of an eight-year addiction. Feeling hopeless and alone, he stood on a bridge, ready to end it all. But in that darkest moment, a small voice whispered, "Josh, there is hope." That night, he made a call — and within hours, ONE80TC welcomed him into the program.

Since then, Josh’s life has been transformed. His family relationships have been restored. His faith has been reignited. And through the Three Peaks Challenge, he was given the chance to not only climb physical mountains but also mark his incredible journey of recovery.

"Thank you ONE80TC. You rescued me from death and are helping me rebuild a future full of hope."
