2 ABOUT The IGA Charity Car Rally is not a race but a leisurely tour of the beautiful Tropical North Queensland region. The rally is a great way to get friends, family or work colleagues together for lots of laughs and fun while supporting the Leukaemia Foundation of Queensland and the vital services it provides to the local community. Start your adventure with a BBQ breakfast at Atherton Supa IGA (Silo Street) and continue on your journey to mystery locations for morning tea and lunch. You ll spend a fun-filled day deciphering a series of questions; participate in physical activities and checkpoints along the way to rugged gulf country Undara Volcanic National Park. Proceeds from the rally will allow the Leukaemia Foundation of Queensland to provide essential support, free of charge, to blood cancer patients and their families including accommodation, transport, counselling and financial assistance. The Foundation also invests more than $1 million each year into life-saving research to help more people survive their blood cancer diagnosis.

3 DESTINATION Undara Lava Tubes Undara Lava Tubes is located 140km or almost three hours drive south of Atherton and is our destination of the 17 th Annual IGA Charity Car Rally. It is located within the Undara Volcanic National Park and part of the Gulf Savannah. Undara Lava Tubes is home to the world s longest lava tube system. The lava tubes and caves were formed when rivers of lava confined to a valley crusted over and formed a roof. Insulated in its casing of solidified lava, the lava flow carried on for tens of kilometres before draining out, leaving an empty tube of lava. Weaker sections of the roof of the tubes later collapsed to form caves and depressions. More than 50 caves have been found in the park. The journey from Atherton to Undara will be an adventure for the senses and spirit. Car Ralliers will experience our rugged country where many locals have not experienced before.
