Parking

Within Weston Park a large space within 150 metres of the water’s edge has been designated for Spectator parking. The access route will be sign posted from Weston Park road. Please make every effort to encourage Spectators to utilise this parking area.

Weston Park trailer parking is available in the car park at the end of Pescott Lane (accessed via Pescott Lane). When entering Weston Park disregard regatta parking signs. Please insure you park trailers as close to the boat park as possible.

Please insure those viewing from the finish area do not park illegally. Ample parking is available on Black Mountain Peninsular which is less than a 6 minute walk from the finish line.

Catering

A Café is located adjacent to the car park off Pescott Lane which will open at 8am and serve everything you would expect from a typical café.

Black Mountain Rowing Club will provide catering at the finish line area.

Weston Park Setup

Please insure you do not setup or drive vehicles in the Additional Spectator Area as there are irrigation pipelines below the surface. This area is north of the dirt path leading from the end of Pescott Land to the water’s edge.

ALGAE ALERT

Currently due to Extreme Blue-green Algae levels the rowing course is closed to Primary Contact which includes whole-body water contact or submersion of the head. The Course remains open for Secondary Contact which includes rowing. ACT Health Guidelines recommend people should not engage in Secondary contact activities unless they are experienced. As a consequence of the alert we will be providing basic shower facilities within Weston Park. Please insure all competitors are aware of the conditions.
