This month, MDOT and partners across the state are celebrating walking, rolling, pedestrian safety, and the paths, sidewalks, trails, and public spaces that connect Maryland communities. Check out the Walktober website to explore events, Walkinars, activities, and other ways to get involved throughout the month.

Go Early Stay Late

Take part in the Walktober Step Challenge and help Maryland reach a goal of 1,000,000 steps during October! The challenge kicks off with a statewide relay and encourages you to get outside, walk or roll in your community, and log your steps throughout the month. Whether you’re exploring a local trail, walking around your neighborhood, or joining a group activity, every step helps move Maryland toward the goal.
