We represent walking for all Queenslanders

Queensland Walks is a community based organisation. We advocate for more walkable places so more Queenslanders choose to walk, roll or stroll.

Our aim is to improve the conditions and profile of walking in Queensland, support and encourage government, organisations and agencies to improve policy and funding priorities to enhance walking.

As an incorporated organisation, Queensland Walks’ membership is open to individuals and organisations interested in promoting walking for all. We continue to promote walking for all ages, all abilities.

Join Queensland Walks to advocate for better policy and planning to make Queensland neighbourhoods more walkable, more liveable for all everyone.

Prioritising people who walk

Queensland’s sustainable transport hierarchy prioritises walking, cycling, and public transport as the most environmentally friendly modes of travel. A quarter of Queenslanders do not hold a driving licence and many Queenslanders can’t afford or chose not to drive. Walking is therefore an important part of a transport system that Queenslanders rely on.
