Über uns

What are you hoping to achieve? Get fit, meet new friends/acquaintances, enjoy nature and your surroundings, maybe uncover new areas of Brisbane and surrounds that you never knew existed. Well, we do all that in Brisbane Walkers.

The real challenge is getting out bed and making your way to the meet-up point. True! We all do it...groan...but once you arrive and start walking, talking and having a damn good time PLUS experiencing different cafes and food, different environments, you will be glad you made the effort.

There is NEVER a good time to start walking. In summer - too hot; in winter - too cold; can't be bothered the other times. You just have to commit to your goal. Did you know that walking is scientifically proven to be one of the best things for your health and wellbeing?

Everyone who makes the effort loves walking with Brisbane Walkers. We're a very friendly and welcoming group for people of any age.

NOTE: We walk at a MEDIUM PACE (a stride), so this is not a group for those who like to stroll along.

What you need to know - PLEASE READ
1. To be accepted, you must have a clear photo of your face/body - we are a social group after all. If you cannot show your face for personal reasons, please message the organiser.
2. We walk around Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and the Sunshine Coast regions, from short walks up to around 16kms.
3. You can do much more than you think, particularly given everyone is chatting away. But a long bushwalk is not the time to be testing how far you can walk.
4. Pick the right walk for your fitness level, that is, please don't sign up for a Mt Coot-tha walk as your first walk unless you are already moderately fit.
5. We ALWAYS socialise after or in the middle of each walk - over breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea or dinner, depending on the time of the walk. If you cannot stay to socialise, you MUST tell the organiser. She will have booked a cafe/restaurant on the basis of the number of RSVPs. Please be considerate.
6. There is no pressure for you to spend a lot of money on food/drink. We all know what it's like to be broke or saving hard. Come along and have a cup of coffee or a piece of toast - no-one will say anything.
7. Brisbane Walkers is not a dating group; we're people who love to walk. If you meet someone special, great! But please don't come along with that expectation.
8. Brisbane Walkers could have tens of thousands of members but the organiser keeps the membership very clean to represent the number of ACTIVE walkers (that's within that year). Most Meetup groups are never cleaned out so the number of members is NOT representative of who is really attending. Note: I delete  members after one year of inactivity.

So c'mon, guys - if you just love to walk, then join us for a regular walk. You'll be most welcome and be one step further into achieving your goals.
