Our series of free outdoor physical activities to support your health and wellbeing is returning from March to May 2026.

Outdoor activities have many benefits. Not only is it a great way to get some exercise, enjoy the sunshine and connect with others in the community, but it also does wonders for our physical and mental health.

This year, we’re running our Fit Park series across different parks and outdoor spaces in Boroondara, with options ranging from high to low intensity activities, and across different areas, weekdays and start times, so there’s an option to suit your needs.

All classes take place in a supportive and encouraging environment so no matter your age or ability, everyone is welcome to come along and give it a go.

Take a look at our calendar of events below and book your place today!
