It’s Walktober! Spearheaded by the Willamette Pedestrian Coalition and sponsored in part by Metro, this three-week celebration through the end of October encourages discovering your surroundings on foot.
Leading up to Halloween – the best walking holiday of the year – the coalition is hosting organized walks and encouraging others to organize their own group walks through an open calendar. The calendar enables anyone to create, post, and lead a walk. The (mostly) free walks range from nature walks, bilingual park tours, knit-bombing expeditions, and pub-crawls.
The Willamette Pedestrian Coalition is a 501(c)(3) non-profit advocacy organization dedicated to promoting walking and making the conditions for walking safe, convenient and attractive throughout the Portland metropolitan region.
