Kokoda Historical

The adventure of walking the Kokoda Track is guaranteed to be one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences of your life. Set high amidst the beautiful mountains of the Owen Stanley's, you will explore one of the last untouched wildernesses left in the world.

As the Kokoda Historical group treks through vast rainforest, makes numerous river crossings and battles its way across rugged terrain, we will recall how young, ill trained and ill equipped militiamen began the fight to save Australia.

What better way of paying homage to the men who fought to save Australia, by learning the history while walking in their footsteps.

Starting off either in the village of Kokoda or Ower's Corner we will make the 96km journey across the rugged terrain of the Kokoda Track.The highlights being: Kokoda, Isurava, Templeton's Crossing, Lake Myola and Brigade Hill.

Kokoda Historical also offers trips to the Northern Beacheads taking in Popondetta, Gona, Sananda and Buna.

Kokoda Historical combines the knowledge of locals and that of Australian Historians. Our emphasis is on small groups and the historical significance of the Kokoda Track and the Kokoda campaign. ...read more
