Top Papua New Guinea Hiking Tours

Adventure Kokoda 10-Day Premium Campaign trek is the complete package. The trek follows the original wartime trail and includes all sites of military significance during the Kokoda campaign – battlesites, patrol tracks, major logistic areas Lake Myola and fire support bases. The itinerary includes two nights at Bombers campsite which allows trekkers to spend a day exploring both Myola lakes and inspecting the American P40 Kittyhawk fighter aircraft that crashed on the northern edge of the lakes. Trekkers return to Bombers campsite for a late lunch and a ‘make-and-mend’ afternoon in the glorious tranquillity of the Moss Forest. The trek includes a solemn Dawn Service involving trekkers and our PNG guides and carriers at the Isurava Memorial. This service is regarded as the highlight of the Kokoda trek experience.

Our Kokoda Trail Treks are led by a PNG trek leader and designed for groups who want to experience the physical challenge of the Kokoda Trail across the original wartime route. While our PNG trek leaders are masters of their environment and will get you safely across the trail they only have a superficial understanding of the Kokoda campaign strategy and battlefield tactics. They have been leading treks across the trail for more than 10 years and are well respected by the Koiari and Orokaiva clan leaders across the trail. Each of our Kokoda Trail Trek group has a PNG medic trained in First Aid - they also carry two VHF radios and a Sat Phone and have 24/7 back up from our base at Sogeri. These treks are best suited for a bunch of mates on a budget who want to experience the physical challenge of the Kokoda Trail and the camaraderie that goes with it.
