Step into a Healthier, Happier Gladstone!
It’s time to grab your walking shoes and rediscover our beautiful city, one step at a time.
You know how good it feels to walk along the marina, through the parks, or just around your neighbourhood. We're making it even easier, more fun, and more social for everyone in Gladstone to get moving!
What is Heart Foundation Walking?
It’s Australia's largest FREE walking initiative, and it’s right here in Gladstone!
Since 1995, this program has helped thousands of Australians embrace a healthier lifestyle.
Whether you're a beginner or already active, joining a walking group is the simplest way to make walking easy, enjoyable, and social.
Walking groups are the ultimate motivation boost! When you walk with a group, you:
- Stay Motivated: No more skipping a walk! Your group keeps you accountable.
- Boost Safety: There's comfort and greater safety in numbers.
- Forge Friendships: Turn neighbours into walking buddies and friends.
- It's Simple: It costs nothing and requires no special equipment—just your runners and a smile!
