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.

The Kokoda Track is not only a beautiful, world class, jungle bushwalking experience, it is a trek into Australia’s wartime history. The Kokoda Track is as important a part of Australian history as Gallipoli. We believe it is a pilgrimage every Australian should experience in their lifetime.

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.

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

Kokoda Strive Trekking

My company specialise in small-sized historical guided tours to First and Second World War battlefields and places of cultural significance in Papua New Guinea, Europe and Turkey.

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.
