Activities and Club Directory
City of Prospect is a bustling and vibrant community with plenty to do for young and old alike. With programs and initiatives for youth, adults, families and singles, there are physical activities, sporting clubs, recreational and social groups, walking and cycling trails, and much more.
City of Prospect proudly supports our local walking group "Prospect Active Walkers" (PAWs), a Heart Foundation walking group.
The Prospect Active Walking Group is affiliated with The Heart Foundation and welcomes all those who wish to improve their fitness through walking and to meet new people.
Before joining the group The Heart Foundation requires that interested walkers register with them. This can be done by filling in the form online at https://walking.heartfoundation.org.au/, or by contacting the Walk Organiser for the Prospect group, Lee Clark on 0417 002 720, who will assist with this registration and answer any queries you may have.
There are two groups, each of which walks three times a week, and you are welcome to join in for one, two, or all three mornings. One group walks for an hour, the second group walks for half an hour and is a slower paced walk. Prams are welcome, but no dogs please.
