Take a hike breast cancer!
Will you join the challenge? From 1 to 31 October, Pink Ribbon organises the twelfth edition of The Pink Walk. Do your best to exercise more than usual every day during the month of October. This way, you will not only raise money for charity, but also take care of your own health. After all, a healthy lifestyle can lower the risk of breast cancer and prevent 1 in 3 cancer diagnoses.
Together we take the next step in the battle against breast cancer!
How does it work?
- Register via the Pink Walk platform. This can be done individually, as a team or with your company. Registration for The Pink Walk costs €12 per participant.
- Enter your steps. This can be done manually or by connecting your pedometer to the platform. (Garmin or Fitbit)

Together is more fun than on your own!
Don’t you agree? So encourage your friends, family and colleagues to participate. When registering, you can choose to participate in The Pink Walk as a team. Motivate your family, friends and loved ones to participate in The Pink Walk and find out who is the most passionate hiker!
Challenge your colleagues to exercise a little more!
Would you like to create a team with some colleagues? Maybe you could motivate your company to create one big corporate team. Or how about an internal competition between the HR and Marketing department? A fun opportunity to challenge each other to move a bit more in the month of May.
How do I support the charity?
You would like to support Pink Ribbon, but you're not much of a hiker? No problem, you can also use the platform to sponsor other participants for their kilometres walked. Find your friend, family member or colleague and choose an amount to donate. This way, you not only support your walking friend, but you also take the next step in the fight against breast cancer!
The May 2025 Pink Walk was a success! Will we do even better this year?
The elevnenth edition of The Pink Walk in May 2025 was a big success. With as many as 6.796 participants, we walked around the world 30 times! Hopefully we will be even more this edition and do a few more laps. Will you help achieve this result?
