For many trekkers their first response when asked why they are here is for the personal challenge that comes with tackling the Kokoda track. I think we should all look a bit further.

Escape Trekking Adventures run primarily two length tours for the Kokoda Track, both tours enjoying a 9-day trek through the wartime jungle path and a night spent before and after the trek at the beautiful Ela Beach hotel in Port Moresby.

Over the past 17 years, Getaway Trekking has established a reputation for leading culturally and ecologically sensitive treks in many destinations. Our vast experience in trekking, combined with our understanding of local culture has contributed to us becoming a leader in the trekking area.

When Vietnam Veteran Merv Hains first walked the Kokoda Track in September 2005, it was the beginning of the Kokoda Track Experience. Merv has since completed 20 trips over the Track and returns regularly to walk alongside trekkers young and old.

Kokoda Tears Tracking & Tours

Tropic Tours Ltd

When you trek Kokoda with Kokoda Trail Expeditions, you help the village economy and provide employment for the lovely locals. This way we pay our gratitude collectively to their descendants, the selfless Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels who helped carry supplies and stretcher wounded Australian diggers during the Kokoda Campaign in 1942.

Walking the Kokoda track has become an important experience for every Australian. The physical and mental challenges of the Track, including an understanding of the courage and sacrifice shown by Australia’s diggers, offer a life-changing experience for every trekker.
