Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What do I do with my vehicle?
A. We are able to leave vehicles at the Coen Information Centre on the Saturday morning. We will have a
bus that can transport participants back to their vehicles on Day 1, when 28 Mile Lagoon is reached. The
bus will also transport you back to 28 Mile on Sunday to bring your camping equipment to the Archer
River Roadhouse. A limited number of large teams will be allowed to relay using their own vehicle, but
please contact the committee on this.
Q. What if I don’t want to walk the whole way?
A. Participants will be able to hop on the bus at any stage during the walk. There will be pick-up points
along the walk and all volunteer organisers will have a UHF radio. There will also be support vehicles.
You may walk as a relay team, together or just do what you can.
Q. What do I do with my children if they get tired?
A. Children will be able to hop on the bus and we will be coordinating ‘family’ groups so parents are able
to help each other out. All children will be considered and organisers will negotiate with you prior to the
walk, who and how you will receive support.

A. To participate comes at no cost. All Food and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided. Friday night,

afternoon tea will be provided along the walk. At 28 Mile, RFDS will be providing a BBQ supper.
