Trek with Kokoda Trekking & have an adventure of a lifetime
The Kokoda Trail is one of the world’s great treks, linking the southern and northern coast of Papua New Guinea, it is a challenge to be enjoyed by the fit bushwalker. The Kokoda Trail and Sogeri area have a history of bitter fighting between Australian and Japanese armies during the early days of the war in the Pacific in World War II.
The 96 km Kokoda trail passes through rugged mountainous country of rainforest, jungles of fern, orchids, birds and clean mountain streams which tumble into steep valleys. The unspoilt villages throughout the Kokoda Track will welcome you and the Koiari and Orokaiva people will greet you with smiles and tempt you with seasonal fruit and vegetables.

What our friends had to say
"I am delighted that we chose to trek with you and your team. While the ability to run a well managed trek was important I believe that the way that you guys give back to the community and include the locals in your operations makes a unique difference to the whole experience. I felt like I was being included in the history of the trail rather than just observing it as a visitor."
"Thanks for a memorable journey. The style of trek that you offer was just what I was seeking and I am already singing your praises here in Brisbane – hopefully more business will come your way."
"Everything was organised and very well planned and we wouldn’t even consider trekking with anyone else – we’ve done it twice with them so they must have been good! The porters are the most wonderful people, so genuinely wanting for you to succeed and doing whatever it takes so you make it."

Majority of Kokoda Trail operators seen here in this photograph who represent approx 70% of the Kokoda Trekking clients who walk the track. Nathan is 3rd from the right, back row.Another great meeting with KTOA members this time in Melbourne. Discussion revolves around the upcoming KTA review and how the Association can continue to help communities along the Kokoda Track and how they can help more Australians walk the great pilgrimage of Kokoda. For more information about the KTOA go to ktoa.com.au
Trek 1112: Congratulations to this latest group of trekkers who are now in the bus heading towards Port Moresby following their successful walk across the Kokoda Trail. Well done everyone from all of us here at Kokoda Trekking. The last climb to the top is tough and even our boys do not like it, lol.
Trek 1112: A few minutes ago I spoke with Gary Juary as well as Dean at Imita Ridge. The trek is going along just fine and it seems they are all having a great time and our KTL boys are looking after them as they walk along the track. Rather than overnight at Goodwater or Goldie River tonight a decision has been made for them to walk off the track later this afternoon. Standby for further updates, but at this stage the estimate is around 3pm. Picture them later today crossing over Goldie River for one last climb to the top and under the Owers' Corner archway!
Trek 1112: This group find themselves at Ioribaiwa tonight with everyone still continuing to do well. Today they experienced some rain which apparently was welcome by the group. A big day on the cards come the morning when they head toward the finish line.
Trek 1112: This group have now reached Agulogo and a few have developed blisters but all ok. Tomorrow they head to Ioribaiwa for the night. After leaving Efogi this morning they made their way up Brigade Hill, then walked through Menari Village before reaching Agulogo campsite area.
Trek 1112: Gary phoned a short time ago and said they are now at Efogi and its seems not a single problem exists among any of the trekkers or porters. He said the sister/brother pair were out the front today. Apparently they arrived at the half way point around 3:30pm this afternoon. Tomorrow they are heading to Agulogo for the night.
Trek 1112: When Gary called last night he said everything went well yesterday and the group were moving along nicely. Today there was a plan a) and a plan b) but just now checking the GPS he is carrying, shows me they will reach their destination of Dump 1 for the night.

Trek 1111: Its been a long hard day for this group as just now I spoke to Ivan Semie and he informed me he was reaching the Kokoda Archway a few minutes ago around 5pm this afternoon. Imagine them earlier throughout the day as they walked through the wild choko fields; looked out over Kokoda at Deniki lookout and imagined themselves finishing their trek in Kokoda and walking through the archway. Well done everyone from all of us here at Kokoda Trekking. Well done KTL staff and guide Harold Hauro.

Trek 1111: Harold phoned to say they have now reached Alola Village and will walk off the track tomorrow afternoon. He said trekkers are looking forward to successfully completing their trek. Picture them tomorrow as they walk into Isurava Memorial. Please note: due to a flight change by PNGAir from a morning departure to a late afternoon departure, we were forced to cancel tickets and put on a charter to move trekkers out of Kokoda so they caught their connections back home. As a result, trekkers will be accommodated at Clement Harika's guesthouse area tomorrow night and will fly direct from Kokoda back to Port Moresby on the 18th May estimated time 8:45am.
Well done to our KTL boys and thanks again No Roads Health Foundation for providing the 1st Aid Training as it was very much appreciated by us. Lets know when some training can be carried out in Kokoda.First Aid Training has finished for 32 Porters from along the Kokoda Track. Small personal first aid kits have been presented to each participant and Everyone is excited that they know a bit more about first aid. Another step toward making Kokoda world class. Thanks to all the KTOA companies that paid for their porters to undertake this invaluable training.
Trek Update: All 12 trekkers who walked off the track yesterday in Kokoda are now back in Port Moresby. Some are preparing for some fishing and others flying home today. Thanks ever so much for choosing to trek with us.
News from Orohaven Pija: hahaha, these trekkers are having their beers, singing and cracking jokes in the round house beside the river. Next message, someone is celebrating their birthday! I replied, sounds like they are having fun! A missed call from Maryanne the cook...I returned her phone call....seems Sujagan needed to check on his flight details for tomorrow. I sent her a text so hopefully he is now relaxed. Info was also provided to the two girls on the track but perhaps they forgot to share it with Sujagan. Perhaps by now they are still celebrating their successful trek or fast asleep ready for an early start tomorrow morning to head to the airport to catch their flight back to Port Moresby.
On behalf of Kokoda Trekking and our KTL boys - a big thank you for the 1st Aid Training32 Porters all from KTOA Member operations have been attending a 2 day First Aid course in Port Moresby. This hands on practical training will help porters not only assist trekkers, but also Australian guides and other porters along the Track. This is the first step toward bring up the standard of care along the Kokoda Track and will be an ongoing process. Well done to all that attended, only good things can come from this.
Trek 1111: Harold just reported in to say they have just reached Templeton's Crossing I. It seems our treks in May have had the track all to themselves and they have not run into any other trekking companies. All trekkers are doing ok. Peter, Bradley and Simon are out the front with Ian and Matthew in the middle and Graham coming up the rear. Tom was not mentioned so am assuming he is somewhere in the middle. Seeing as Graham has been operated on re his knees, he is doing extremely well. Tomorrow night they hope to reach Alola Village.
