WALK THE KOKODA TRACK
This is not a trip for the faint-hearted.
This is for those who want to stand at the edge of their comfort zone, dig deep, and take on a challenge that will shape them forever.
Over 10 intense days, you’ll battle steep hills, cross rushing streams, and navigate dense rainforests. Along the way, you’ll pass through villages, war memorials, and key battle sites where Australian soldiers fought to defend their country during World War II. It's a brutal, beautiful test of endurance, mateship, and resilience.
Now, it's your turn to feel the weight of history underfoot, push your body to its limits, and emerge on the other side with a new sense of purpose.
Walk with us, on the Kokoda Track.
Experiences
Civilian
Step out of the ordinary and into the footsteps of heroes.
The Kokoda Track is not your typical hike – it’s a battle with yourself and the terrain, a journey that will push your limits and open your mind.
This is where you’ll walk the same path as soldiers who fought in one of Australia's most defining moments. It's 96 kilometres of rugged, untamed jungle, steep climbs, and humbling history.
Plus, your journey doesn't end when you reach Kokoda. All profits from this trek go back to supporting veterans, giving you the chance to make a real impact while conquering a personal challenge.
-
Led by Australian veterans, you’ll be guided by those who understand what it means to push through the toughest conditions. They bring their firsthand experience of service and resilience to ensure you're not just walking the trail – you're connecting with its legacy of mateship and sacrifice.
This trek will test you physically and mentally. You'll face relentless hills, sweltering humidity, and unpredictable conditions. But with every step, you'll gain more than just kilometres – you'll gain insight into the courage, sacrifice, and mateship that the Kokoda Trail represents. Expect to be challenged, inspired, and transformed.
Ready to see what you’re made of? The Kokoda Trail is calling.
Veterans
Designed to honour those who’ve served, our experiences offer veterans a chance to reflect on their service while walking the same paths our ANZACs fought on. This journey pushes beyond the physical. It’s a chance to reconnect with the deeper purpose and community spirit that often gets lost after military service.
In partnership with RSL NSW, we sponsor veterans from across New South Wales to take on the Kokoda Track.
This program is about more than self-discovery—it’s about deploying the leadership and resilience you’ve honed to make a difference back home.
If you’d prefer to fund your own trek, that’s absolutely fine too.
-
Physically, this is a challenge like no other, but the true reward lies in the bond you’ll forge, sharing stories and reflections as you walk the historic path. This trek offers the perfect space to reflect on your service, alongside those who’ve walked the same road.
Veterans will rediscover their leadership, community engagement, and problem solving skills. These are tools sharpened through service but often underutilised afterward. With coaching and guidance, they’ll translate these into meaningful, impactful initiatives upon returning home. They’ll find a renewed sense of purpose, not only for their communities but also in their workplaces, families, and social circles.
The journey
Each of your eleven days on the trek demands grit and endurance as you navigate rugged, unforgiving terrain.
The mountain passes will push your stamina, while remote villages along the way offer a glimpse into a world unchanged by time. You'll connect with locals, learn their traditions, and witness the quiet resilience that defines their lives.
Every step is steeped in history. Along the track, memorials stand in silent tribute to the soldiers who fought and fell here during the Kokoda Campaign. You’ll pause to honour them, understanding that their sacrifice paved the way for our future.
