Alexa Walks Canada; Walk Tonquin Trail for Mental Health

Alexa Rathgaber, a Kinesiology student from Saskatoon, SK, has spent the past two years walking across Canada to raise funds and awareness for mental health. Partnered with the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), Alexa has covered approximately 10 km per day since October 1, 2023—totaling an incredible 7,100 km.

She will complete her journey in Tofino on October 1st, with a final group walk to mark the occasion. The walk will begin at the entrance of Tonquin Trail by the Community Hall, continue along the trail to Middle Beach, and return to Tonquin Beach, where the map of her cross-country trek officially ends.

Participants are invited to join Alexa in this celebratory walk, sign her custom flag, and learn more about her journey. Donations are accepted through her social media at @alexa.walks.canada, where updates and ways to connect are also available.

Let’s walk together in support of mental health and help Alexa finish strong!
