Meet Charles Gore — The Hiker with Heart (and Snakes)

Sydney, NSW
📍 Born in Cardiff, Wales – chasing trails and sunsets ever since

Charles Gore is the kind of adventurer who makes you want to lace up your trail runners and chase sunsets. A nature photographer, hiker, kayaker, and all-around good vibes guy, Charles’ love for the outdoors kicked off after watching a YouTube video about New Zealand’s Kepler Track—and he's been hooked on multi-day hiking ever since.

From Sydney’s coastal hikes to epic snowboarding trips and chilly ocean dips, Charles is always chasing that next moment of awe. His most memorable hike? Completing the Kepler Track in just two days, walking through landscapes that feel straight out of Lord of the Rings. And don’t even get him started on sunsets—like the time Kangaroo Island lit up in a sky of deep red fire.

When he’s out on the trail, Charles is all about trail runners for speed, a double shot oat milk coffee, and Darn Tough socks that never let him down. His pack always includes a stash of jelly snakes, and when the hike’s done, he’s reaching for pizza and an ice-cold alcoholic ginger beer.

Whether he's out snapping photos, snowboarding with mates, or dreaming of the Pacific Crest Trail, Charles brings a perfect mix of energy and laughter to every adventure. Oh—and his dream adventure buddy? Steve Carell from The Office, because every trip needs a good laugh.
