The Kokoda Track, once the scene of bitter fighting between the Australians and Japanese during World War II, is now one of the world’s great treks and a pilgrimage for many. The trail runs 96 kilometres between Kokoda and Ower’s Corner, crossing rugged mountain ranges of Papua New Guinea, through rainforests and across mountain streams and rivers. Trekkers pass through local villages where descendents of the wartime “fuzzy wuzzy angels” continue to live simple traditional lifestyles whilst providing a warm welcome to passing trekkers. Although the Kokoda Trail is an arduous trek for the fit and adventurous, it is a rewarding challenge, one which will inspire you, as you get an insight into the legends of Kokoda and the hardships they had to endure in their battle to save Australia.

Please note that as many trekkers prefer to carry their own pack, personal porters are not included, but can be provided if required. Please contact Kumuka or your agent to obtain the price for a personal porter.
