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.

Frank H. Taylor and his team have had a 30-year relationship with the people and landscape of the Kokoda Trail.

The Kokoda Track holds an extremely important place in Australia’s history. So join with other women adventurers to remember and respect the soldiers who went to war. From July 1942, the route over the Owen Stanley Range witnessed the battle hardened Japanese war machine, encounter young, unprepared, untrained, unproven and hopelessly outnumbered Australian soldiers.

Hike through the pristine jungles of the Kokoda track and walk in the footsteps of our forefathers while getting an account of all the battles that took place in this sacred place.

Kokoda Footsteps Trekking

Our Papuan leader is fully trained and briefed by Australian Paramedics and we have a strict protocol for emergency situations on all tours. We have a computer monitored GPS tracking system for all Papuan led tours which can relay information immediately back to Paramedics in Australia to assess any incidents or emergencies and implement emergency procedures if necessary.

At Kokoda Trekking, we’ve escorted thousands of trekkers through one of the most beautiful and difficult landscapes in the world.

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.
