FAQ
Toowoomba Bushwalkers run a range of walks of different lengths and difficulty levels.
If one walk isn’t suitable, there will likely be another you can do instead.
We also have social outings, or you could just come camping.
Our experienced and helpful walk leaders are always willing to provide advice about upcoming walks, and seek to help enhance the ability and confidence of all participants.
Everyone always makes it home safely.
