Caboolture’s Paths – Explore, Connect, and Revive

One local person wanted to get fit and healthy and created these walks. Let me know if you have your own path, and I’ll add it to the map.

Please note that we’re currently updating the map so please bear with us.

Walk your neighbourhood, improve your community

Your local neighbourhood should be a place where walking feels safe and enjoyable. Whether you’re strolling through parks, along footpaths, or past familiar landmarks, it’s good to know there’s an easy way to report issues when something’s not right.

Snap Send Solve is a free app that connects you with the right organisation to address local problems. It’s the easiest way to report issues like broken footpaths, damaged equipment, fallen trees, graffiti, abandoned trolleys, overflowing bins, or dumped rubbish. The app automatically directs your report to the relevant authority, whether it’s Moreton Bay Council, supermarkets for trolleys, Energex, or other local services. You can even use it to suggest improvements for your area.

This app is used across Australia and New Zealand, making it simple for you, your family, and your friends to take action when needed. To get started, download the app at SnapSendSolve.

We recommend Snap Send Solve because it’s practical and effective. There’s no financial gain for us – just a shared goal of keeping neighbourhoods like yours clean, safe, and easy to enjoy.

By sharing this app, you help make it easier for everyone to keep our shared spaces walking-friendly and well-maintained.

Check out facebook groups that encourage walking

Heart Foundation Walking work every day to achieve an important goal – an Australia free of heart disease. They do this by building and supporting a community of walkers. Their program is Australia’s largest free walking network, and offers Australians multiple ways to walk.

There are many ways you can support Heart Foundation Walking. By becoming a community partner and hosting walks in your community, volunteering to lead a walk or by simply sharing our program with your friends and family and encouraging them to join a group.

Here’s how you gather data about lighting on streets to notify Council

Instructions courtesy of Jake Coppinger. Please feel free to ask questions when you get stuck. If your street light is broken, use the free app SnapSendSolve.

Sign up to OpenStreetMap.org, you tag whether a particular footpath or road is lit up or not. After signing up via that website it will drop you into a little tutorial which is very helpful for understanding how to add data. Then you follow these instructions:

For PC

You write down when walking/cycling whether a particular footpath/, cycleway, road is lit up. On your home computer, log into OpenStreetMap.org you find that particular footpath, cycle path. Add the tag lit=yes or lit=no

For Apple

You download the Go Map!!app (on iPhone, iPad), sign in with the OpenStreetMap account. You can then tap on a footpath/cycleway, click Tags, and add a tag with key lit and value yes or noMore information about other values for the lit tag are at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:lit.
