The Gold Coast Ramble is a unique and innovative team event for charity run by Gold Coast Rotary.
It is primarily a fun community event but with an element of competition that enthuses and motivates teams to spend the entire three allocated hours, solving clues to find as many checkpoints as possible. For the more competitive, completion of all checkpoint challenges in the allotted time involves strategy and teamwork. A shorter two-hour Ramble is suited to families with younger children or teams with less mobile members.
It can best be described as a car rally / treasure hunt on foot or public transport. Teams of costumed participants explore the parks, malls and streets of Surfers Paradise and Main Beach. The challenges being to solve clues to locate 30 to 40 checkpoints within a set time. At each checkpoint, the team use the Gold Coast Ramble App to receive a challenge to complete.
A range of attractive prizes provide encouragement with random draw and best costume prizes rewarding participation.
