Walking in Antarctica is dangerous. Ninety-eight percent of the continent is covered with an ice sheet and glaciers that flow downhill. This means that there are snow bridges that hide deadly crevasses.
Temporary workers and scientists who prefer to walk can do so only on flagged routes, and only within the boundaries of the research facility where they work.
