Westfield North Lakes Shopping Centre Walkers

The Westfield North Lakes Shopping Centre Walkers group in North Lakes, Queensland, offers a friendly, welcoming environment for people to stay active through weekly walks around the shopping centre. The group meets regularly, providing a safe and accessible space for walkers of all ages and fitness levels. This includes those new to exercise or recovering from health issues, with the centre’s smooth, obstacle-free paths making walking comfortable and inclusive. The walks generally last 30 to 45 minutes at a slow, gentle pace, and walkers can take breaks as needed, with plenty of seating available nearby. The group encourages social connection alongside physical activity, fostering a sense of community as participants often enjoy coffee and conversation together after their walks. Led by a local physiotherapist, the walks emphasize health, wellbeing, and social engagement. The meeting point is typically near the food court by the Coffee Club, at the Coles end of the centre. This group is part of the larger Heart Foundation Walking network, which promotes heart health through regular walking activities. Westfield North Lakes itself is a major retail hub with extensive amenities, making it an ideal, convenient location for this type of community activity.
