Weekly  Walking Group

Not Your Average Walk – Launceston

Hills & Thrills is for people who want to move more, but not alone. It’s a supportive, social walking group that turns Launceston’s hills into your strength training playground.

Hills and Thrills steps off every Wednesday evening at 6pm to get you over the peak of the week.

Each week, we tackle a new 5km route filled with hills, drills, and scenic views. You’ll train alongside friendly faces who’ll cheer you on, through every incline and sweaty success.

Gyms and boot camps aren’t your style?  Walk with us. Get stronger. Feel better. Build cardio and confidence, together.

Be prepared for brisk walking! This is your Advanced Walking Fitness Group.

The walks are circuits and are timed strictly to be back at the start at the 1-hour mark, and we have ways of keeping everyone moving in the group without leaving anyone behind! With an unsurpassed knowledge of the greater Launceston area on foot, a wide range of fitness levels can be catered for in the one walking group.
