The Walk Route for 2026

Our route for 2026 is a bit different than in recent years.

The 2026 Durham CROP Hunger Walk route will start at Duke Chapel, to Campus Drive, then to Baldwin Auditorium on East Campus, which is the midpoint rest stop. The walkers then return to the Finish Line in front of Duke Chapel.

 

Parking

This year there will be parking for CROP Walkers available in the Duke University Rd Lots (across from the Karsh Alumni and Visitors Center) and the Allen Lots (behind the Allen Building). Overflow parking will be available in the Campus Drive Lot at the intersection of Anderson and Campus Drive.
