From Port Moresby, depending on your tour company’s schedule, trekkers will either fly to Kokoda and walk on to Owers Corner (your tour company will usually have organised for road transport back to Port Moresby) or complete this trip in reverse.

Air Niugini operates daily scheduled flights into Girua Airport, situated 30 minutes by road outside the provincial capital Popondetta. Travel from Popondetta to Kokoda is approximately four hours by a “Public Motor Vehicle’ (PMV).
