What is active travel?
Active travel is any mode of transport involving physical activity. It could be as simple as walking or cycling for part or all of your journey. It’s a great way to fit physical activity into your daily life by simply leaving the car at home!
Discover somewhere new, catch up with friends or enjoy some me-time on the way to work – there are plenty of ways to incorporate active travel into your day.
Where can I actively travel?
Townsville has an extensive network of active travel routes across the city.
Check out the Active Travel Guide for more information on routes including maps.
