All Brisbane Bushwalkers Club Inc. members
The Management Committee has updated the response plan for transitioning back to our Club’s regular activities. We appreciate our leaders and members patience and support. This has helped us to expand safe bushwalking activities aligning with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions by the Queensland Government.
The links below will take you to general advice from the Federal and Qld Governments. They will help you keep safe when bushwalking and compliant with Government regulations.
Protect yourself and others
Everyone must follow the guidance on good hygiene, physical distancing and behaviour at public gatherings to slow the spread of COVID-19 and protect those who are most at risk.

People at higher risk
Please see if you are in a group at a higher risk of developing COVID-19 at this Healthdirect webpage, and consider your condition.
Current status updates
