Hiking the Kokoda Track
1942 saw the Kokoda Track as a scene of bitter fighting when the Australian Army fought to defend Port Moresby from advancing Japanese forces. Today, walking that same track has become an iconic pilgrimage for those wanting to honour the ANZAC spirit.
Regarded as one of the world’s greatest treks, the Kokoda Track links the south and north coast of Papua New Guinea across 150 kilometres of rocky mountain terrain, tropical rainforest and pristine villages.
On this inspiring adventure, you will trek the track by day, open to the unforgiving and inspiring beauty of Papua New Guinea’s tropical rainforest. As nightfall descends, you will stay in isolated camps, swapping stories with local Koiari and Orokaiva people and falling asleep to the nocturnal sounds of the jungle.
Best of all, you’ll make a difference to a cause you’re passionate about and meet like-minded people on this adventure of a lifetime. Get ready to find out why the Kokoda Track is considered one of the world’s great treks.
