Parking is limited at both the 12km start and Nightcliff pool. We recommend either using the distances you park from the start line as your warm up, or catching the shuttle buses.
Buses will depart from the Nightcliff Pool to the Darwin Esplanade (12km start). Each way journey is $10 if you pre-pay, or you can purchase a ticket on the day for $15.
