WALKS WITH PURPOSE

If you love walking in nature and connecting with others via conversations about meaning, depth psychology, the nature of the universe, philosophy, personal growth, etc, let’s walk together.

The intention of Walks with Purpose is to create a container for an emergent experience, in other words, it’s a loose structure allowing for synchronicity, spontaneity, and surprises.

There’s no charge for the walks however we understand the importance of reciprocity and so encourage you to pay it forward by making a donation to one of the charities we’ve nominated. 

How it works:

We

• organise a spot to meet for a great walk and put the word out

• help organise ride-sharing where possible

• lightly facilitate a very brief intention-setting invitation at the start of the walk

• lightly facilitate a group chat about the experience at the end.

You:

• register and let us know if you need a lift or can offer a lift

• bring your own weather protection, food and drinks, intention for the walk, and anything else you like to bring for walking in nature

• make a donation to one of the charities we’ve nominated if you’re able.

NEXT WALK FOR 2023

Our next walk is at the Werribee Gorge near Pentland Hills, lands of the Wadawurrung and Wurundjeri Peoples.

We’ll meet at the Meikles Point Picnic area and do the Short Circuit Walk which is around 5km long and takes about two hours. You can find out more about the walk here.

We’ll meet in the car park at 10am, gather for a quick intention-setting, then get walking. You can walk alone, chat with others, a bit of both, whatever feels right for you. At the end of the walk, we’ll all grab our food and sit, eat and reflect on the experience together.

Allow around 3-4hrs for the whole thing.

Please don’t bring pets and enclosed shoes are really recommended for this walk.
