What is CNOY Like?
It is fun! You choose both the length of the walk (either 2km or 5km) and if you will walk on your own or create a team and walk as a group.
All walking routes are flat and easy. Along the route there will be marshalls cheering you along, fabulous rest stops at local restaurants and a warm snack at the end.
Still not sure? Hear from past walkers, businesses and other community supporters about what CNOY is like.
