**Heart Foundation Walk - Mount Louisa**

Townsville Hike and Explore is partnering with the Heart Foundation for the 4th year running & is proudly part of Australia’s largest walking community.

Currently the course we take commences from Weston St and we ascend via an old service road. This road has several, rather steep inclines and in places, can be quite rocky with loose gravel underfoot. This somewhat challenging road runs almost parallel to the official Mt Louisa Trail. We exit this trail at the Mt Louisa summit.

After a rest to catch our breath, we then proceed down the well maintained official trail that is comprised almost entirely of steps. The descent is considered a relatively easy walk down.

While not mandatory, it is strongly encouraged to join our Heart Foundation walking group by clicking on the link below.
