MEDIA RELEASE 8.07.2021 5 Lands Walk 2021 reborn with the Spring Equinox
5 Lands Walk 2021 reborn with the Spring Equinox
Equinox, when day and night are equal in length, occurs twice a year, in March and September,
heralding Autumn and Spring.
This year, the Spring Equinox heralds something particularly special, with the 5 Lands Walk now
scheduled for 25 September, corresponding with the southerly whale migration along the Pacific
coast, offspring in tow.
For both visitors holidaying on the Central Coast and locals celebrating the delights of Spring, 5
Lands Walk 2021 promises to be one of the best yet.
5 Lands Walk President, Pauline Wright, said “In common with the organisers of many events this
year, our Organising Committee was acutely aware of the disappointment the postponement of this
year's celebrations would cause the thousands of registered participants, not to mention the 5 Lands
Walk’s 700-plus volunteers and sponsors, who had worked so hard to plan this fantastic free event."
"The decision to postpone was made because of our responsibility to ensure safety for all in these
Covid impacted times.”
"So, we are delighted to announce that the 5 Lands Walk Weekend 2021 will take place from 24 to 26
September 2021, with the Walk to occur Saturday 25 September after our Opening Ceremony on
Friday the 24th. It is important for the 5 Lands community to come together at a time when the
whales are migrating, and what better time to celebrate the rebirth of the 5 Lands Walk 2021 than
Spring?"
"I look forward to sharing this amazing community event with you and encourage all 5 Lands
Walkers to keep an eye on www.5landswalk.com.au for details and registration. Any further advice
we may receive from Health authorities closer to the date will also be found there."
"Please diarise and share the new date with your family and friends and help us make the 5 Lands
Walk 2021 an extraordinary celebration connecting people to people and people place", said Ms
Wright.
