The walk is a non-competitive challenge event open to all families,
groups or individuals. This event
is organised by Airevalley District Scout Council.
This event is not a race; there will be a choice of distances, 10,
20 and 40 kilometres. Whilst the longer distance may be physically demanding,
the shorter distance is a good introduction to walking.
Groups of 10 or more who enter as a team and pass through all check
points also qualify for a team award, at no extra cost (minimum
of 8 to finish).
Each entrant who competes a chosen route will receive a
commemorative badge and certificate.
The routes will be marked and marshalled. St John’s Ambulance
will provide first-aid cover.
