The walk connects the five beachside communities of MacMasters Beach, Copacabana, Avoca Beach, North Avoca and Terrigal along a 10.5-kilometre walking route.The 5 Lands Walk Event was developed by the former Gosford City Council and since the inaugural walk on 24 June 2006, the program continues to grow to become a major cultural event and attraction on the Central Coast. Commencing at MacMasters Beach, the walk traverses the coastal landscape, through differing types of views, vistas and landforms, culminating at the well-known landmark of the Skillion at Terrigal.These natural experiences are complemented by a diverse cultural program during the 5 Lands Walk Event. Different activities are held at each of the 5 Lands, including Aboriginal ceremonies, cultural performances, whale watching, music, song, dance, kite flying, art, food and photography. This provides a foundation for each land to showcase the diverse cultural offerings of the communities of the area.The event embraces the many facets of Aboriginal beliefs, customs, culture, art and spirituality in which participants gain an experience and appreciation of the Central Coast’s local Aboriginal community. A growing number of schools, surf clubs, ethnic communities, business and arts communities also contribute to events on the day of the walk.
