What we’re about
Welcome to Melbourne Walks, where we put the "fun" in "fungus" (because sometimes we walk in the woods)! If you're looking for a group that's as welcoming as a koala on Eucalyptus, you've found your people.
We love exploring the best trails and tracks that Melbourne and Victoria offer. From city strolls to countryside capers, we embrace it all with open arms (and well-stretched calves). Join us for a trek, a chat, and probably a snack (or two). You'll fit right in whether you're a seasoned hiker or a first-time stroller. We're just here to enjoy nature, laugh a lot, and maybe get lost (but only a little bit, we promise).
To keep our walking adventures fun and fabulous, we've got eight simple rules in place. Think of them as trail markers for a happy walking community:
a) Not a Dating Group: Love may be in the air, but we're here for the fresh air! If you're looking for romance, swipe right elsewhere.
b) No Phone Numbers: We're old school – keep the digits to yourself. Use Meetup's messaging system to chat with your new walking buddies. This rule is in place to protect your privacy and ensure everyone feels comfortable. Let's keep things mysterious!
c) 18 and Over: Sorry, kiddos! Our hikes are for adults only.
d) No WhatsApp Group Invites: Keep the group chats to a minimum. We love talking, but let's save it for the trails.
e) No Advertisements: Our events are commercial-free zones. Leave the sales pitches at home – we're here for the stroll, not the spiel.
g) No Carpooling: We love you, but we're not sharing the ride due to liability and safety issues.
h) No Selling Allowed: Keep your products, services, and schemes to yourself. We're here to hike, not to buy into the next big thing.
i) Be Friendly: A smile goes a long way. Be kind, be welcoming, and make new friends. We're all in this together!
So, lace up those boots, follow the rules, and make every walk a walk to remember! We can't wait to welcome you to Melbourne Walks. Join us and let's make some memories together!
