ACT Walking for Pleasure
ACT Walking for Pleasure (WFP) is a Canberra-based volunteer‐run association that organises guided walks for members.
There are morning walk programs for Tuesdays (about 1½ hours), Wednesdays (about 2 hours), Thursdays (Strolls, about 1 hour), Fridays (about 2 hours), Saturdays (2‐4 hours), and Sundays (about 2 hours). Longer, more demanding walks are offered on an ad hoc basis.
No bookings are required. You may join any suitable morning walk at the starting time and place advised in our quarterly newsletter The Capital Wanderer.
There is no obligation to attend walks nor any charge for walking, apart from a small annual membership fee.
New walkers may try walks before joining. Email info@actwfp.org.au for a two-week sample.
The emphasis is on relaxation and enjoyment. Please leave your pets at home.
