                    Women Who Walk – Princes Park project

                    Women walking through a park together.
                    In spring 2019, the City of Melbourne partnered with Victoria Walks to trial a series of facilitated evening social walks for women over seven weeks from late October to early December.

                    The trial was aimed at women who live or work in the City of Melbourne, particularly those who live close to Princes Park.

                    The aim of the pilot was to create a welcoming event that would attract a wide range of women to connect and make use of the city’s recreation spaces in the evening, when many women feel uncomfortable exercising alone.

                    The Princes Park group continues to meet and walk on Tuesday nights. If you would like to join the group please contact Victoria Walks.

                    To get involved in other walking groups, visit the Victoria Walks website.
