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.
