Q: I have never walked offtrack before can I come?
A: Yes. This track will be difficult so a good level of fitness is reccomended but you dont need experience offtrack walking. The difficulty comes from uneven terrain and long hot hours NOT distance. Offtrack walking can sometimes move at 1km/h pace especially when extremely overgrown after a strong wet season. 

Q: What should i bring?
A: A day backpack with plenty of snacks, packed lunch at least 3L of drinking water. Personal first aid kit with snake bandages should be carried on every off track walk. Headtorch just in case. Reccomended water proofing if any personal items.

Q: What should i wear?
A: Long sleeves pure cotton shirt, hiking shoes and wide brim hat is highly reccomended. Pants can be a good idea as extra protection from snakes and sun. Pack a bag with an extra change of clothes for the ride home. Your carmates will thank you.
