WALK IN THE
FOOTSTEPS
OF HEROES
The Kokoda Trail was the scene of some
of the bloodiest battles of World War
II and still carries the scars of a fierce
campaign. The Kokoda Trail is the site
where the advancing Japanese forces lost
their campaign to claim Port Moresby
from the ‘back door’ in their ultimate
goal to capture Australia. For those who
lost family members from a previous
generation in WWII this walk can be
an intensely emotional and spiritual
experience and indeed for all trekkers
the sheer beauty of the terrain and
spectacular scenery is unforgettable. To
walk the trail is by far the most popular
trek in Papua New Guinea and takes
between 6-8 days to walk as you ascend
and descend a range of simply stunning
but unbelievably challenging terrain
including endless river crossings and rain
forests. Conditions are usually wet and
slippery and rain can be expected most
days. Temperatures range from 24 - 30c
degrees in the day and 15 - 24c degrees
at night.

CHOOSING
YOUR TREK
Kokoda Trekking offers several different
packages ranging from a (6 day / 5 night)
trek to (9 days / 8 nights). We have
Papua New Guinean led treks as well as
Australian/ Historian led treks. A trek on
the Kokoda Trail can be done either from
the Port Moresby (Sogeri) side of the
Owen Stanley Range to Kokoda, which is
the most preferred option and historically
correct route. Alternatively to start the
trek from Kokoda, you will need to take
a 30 minute flight to Kokoda from Port
Moresby which is included within the
trekking costs. Trekkers are welcome to
join our scheduled treks or we can create
a trek to suit. These can be set up as a
“Private Trek” or an “Open Trek”. The
Open trek allows others to join your
group whereas a Private trek will just be
for your group of trekkers alone and will
incur an additional cost depending upon
numbers booked.

Monument where we again stop for photographs. Now
the fun begins as we travel via dirt road for approximately
45 min to Owers’ Corner Weather permitting. The trek
continues with your first descent down to Goldie River. We
cross over Goldie River and commence our first climb to
Imita Ridge “Golden Stairs which is no longer there”. Upon
reaching the top it is another long descent down to Ua-Ule

This morning we will leave our campsite for Nauro where
we will be crossing numerous creek crossings. We then climb
up loribaiwa Ridge, half way up your climb you will reach
loribaiwa village. We continue trekking until we reach the
top of Ioribaiwa Ridge. This is the point during World War 2
where the Japanese retreated. It is now a steep descent down
to Ofi Creek where you will enjoy your first lunch break
and swim. You will then refill your water bottles for a steep
couple of hours climb up Maguli Range to your Destination
of Nauro.
DAY 3: NAURO - MENARI
Today will be an easy walk down Brown River where you
will cross with care as the river may be high due to rainfall.
You will then continue your trek onto the next creek where
you will refill your water bottles for your climb to the top of
Menari Lookout. From the lookout you will enjoy the views

Menari airstrip where you will then continue onto your first
creek crossing of the day. You will refill your water bottles for
your next climb up Brigade Hill. At the top of Brigade Hill
you will have a chance to take in some of the scenery from
the lookout. After your short break you will then descend
down to EFOGI Village where you will overnight ready for
Day 5. Most trekkers refer to EFOGI as the best guest house
on the trail “5 Star”.
DAY 5: EFOGI - TEMPLETON’S CROSSING
Day 5 will begin with your first climb of the day up to
Efogi 2 which is another small village. You will then have a
steep climb down to the first creek crossing of the day. After
another climb up to Kagi Village you will get to enjoy your
lunch for this day. You then continue again to 1900 Camp
Site where you will camp for the night.
DAY 6: TEMPLETON’S CROSSING - IORA CREEK
From 1900 Campsite you will start day 6 with another climb
up to Mt Bellamy. This is the highest peak of the entire track.
Weather permitting you will be able to look down as far as
Kokoda Station. Once you have taken your first break you
will then trek down to Templeton’s Crossing 1, once you
cross this creek you will the make another climb with a short
descent after your climb down to Templeton’s Crossing 2
where you will enjoy your lunch break. You will then start
yet another climb and then descent down to your campsite
of Iora Creek.
DAY 7: IORA CREEK - ISURAVA

a climb to Isurava Monument. You will then have a lunch
break before moving onto Isurava Village campsite where you
will overnight.
DAY 8: ISURAVA - KOKODA
Today is your last day of trekking. You will have a few short
Climbs and Descents before descending down to Hoi Village
for a short flat walk to Kokoda Village. Once in Kokoda you
will have the chance to take a break at Kokoda Station and
take in a range of must see attractions including the War
Museum and other historical memorials, the local hospital,
the library, and other attractions in and around the local area.
You will then spend your last night out on the track at our
accommodation referred to as ‘OroHaven’ Retreat.
DAY 9: KOKODA - PORT MORESBY
Today is your last day in Kokoda where you will then be
transported back into Port Moresby
DAY 1: KOKODA - ISURAVA
trekking
itinerary
6 Day 5 Night Trek
Owers’ Corner – Kokoda
Example Itinerary
You will arrive in Kokoda from Port Moresby after a short
20 minute flight. You will walk from airstrip straight to the
Kokoda Station and take in a range of must see attractions
including the War Museum and other historical memorials,
the local hospital, the library, and other attractions in and
around the local area. This is where we commence our trek,
and after just an hour on foot, you will arrive at your first
Kokoda village – the village of Kovelo. After a short stop,
we will embark on another hour’s walk and soon arrive at
the well structured and organised village of Hoi. It is in
Hoi that you will begin to realise just how challenging this
trek will really be. This part of the Kokoda Trail is not easy
and presets you with a tough, steep climb in the beginning.
But don’t be disheartened – this is just a test to get you in
the mood, if you are not already raring to go. Another five
hours on from here you will arrive in Isurava. Isurava is
home to a magnificent war memorial – opened by Australian
Prime Minister John Howard in 2002 - and was the site of
a significant World War II battle. Isurava is now regarded as
one of the most sacred sites along the trail and is made all the
more special by panoramic views of the Kokoda and Yodda
valleys along the way. To rest your weary limbs after day one,
you will stay overnight at the local guest house.
DAY 2: ISURAVA - TEMPLETON’S CROSSING
After a restful evening, we set off early in the day, for our
next destination – the village of Alola, and then move on to
Iora Creek. Faced with a challenging and steep climb, and
then a sharp descent, we finally reach Templeton’s Crossing
which is where we spend the night. Imagine spending the
evening under the forest canopy and falling asleep to the
gentle voice of the Iora Creek splashing against the rocks?
That will be you. And if you bring a line, you can also try
your hand at trout fishing.

Day Three sees your trek begin with another steep climb and
descent – much like day two. With another crossing of Iora
Creek, you will then climb to the top of Mt Bellamy, the
highest point of the Kokoda Trail and take in the panoramic
views of the area. You will be treated to a wonderful reward
here - an enjoyable walk through a carpet of moss, which
will take you to the junction of Myola and Kagi, which is
land marked by an aircraft propeller. It is here that we will
take a right turn, make a climb, and then descend to the
splendorous village of Kagi. Kagi quite simply, commands
spectacular views of villages along the Kokoda Trail and is
a must see for trekkers to the area. We will continue with
a walk to the airstrip, regarded as the steepest walk in the
world, where we will descend to the creek, and then ascend
to Efogi No. 2 village. If we turn back and look you will
be able to see your trekking path from Kagi and it is at this
point that we begin to make our descent into Efogi, where
we stop for the evening and collect our food and supplies
thanks to a prearranged food drop.
DAY 4: EFOGI - NAURO
Up early again and you will begin the day with a refreshing
and challenging climb up to Brigade Hill. Brigade Hill, along
with Isurava is one of the most sacred sites along the Kokoda
Trail and having taken in this most beautiful area, you will
then begin your descent to the village of Menari. As you
continue along and then begin a further climb up a steep
hill you will be taken in by summit as it presents you with
fine views of Menari. Following this breathtaking moment
you will make a muddy, swampy, and at times leech-infested
(if you are lucky!) trek to the Brown River, which must be
crossed with great care, especially if the River is in flood.
Next take a walk onto the village of Nauro where we stop for
the night to eat and rest, ready for day five.
DAY 5: NAURO – UA’ULE CREEK
We begin our day by climbing the heartbreaking false peaks
of Maguli Ridge (where you will even have time to count
them yourself ). After descending to Ofi Creek for a well deserved break, we will then make another climb to Ioribaiwa
Ridge, and a subsequent descent to Ua’Ule Creek for our last
night together on the Kokoda track.
DAY 6: UA’ULE CREEK - OWERS’ CORNER
With one final push for day six, we do the hard graft to reach
Imita Ridge, and then descend the ‘Golden Stairs’ and
the Goldie River. As a reward, we take one last refreshing
dip in the River before climbing up to Owers’ Corner.
Congratulations! You and your fellow trekkers have just
completed one of the world’s toughest treks. Along the trail,
you have climbed nearly 5,500 meters (18,000 feet) and
descended almost the same amount as you weaved in and out
of some of the worlds most picturesque areas.
“
It has been 5 weeks since my return from Kokoda and there is not a day that goes by
that I don’t stop and think of the experience. It is my every thought. A journey that
has made me want to go back again and again.
As I said to you Gail on the night of our debriefing I have never felt such a sense
of empowerment than that of the final night in Kokoda and how I learned
camaraderie still exists between fellow country men of all walks of life and race.
Kristi, Trek 423
communication
In order to communicate and coordinate our treks with the trek leaders, we utilise the
local radio network & Satellite Phone. This is how we keep all trek leaders, guides and
trekkers up to date with the latest developments on the Kokoda Trail. A two way radio
is carried for this purpose. A satellite phone is also carried for use in emergencies and
for daily briefings with Head Office in Port Moresby. The official language of Papua
New Guinea is English and the other two most commonly used languages are Hiri
Motu (commonly spoken on the track) and Tok Pisin. Most guides and porters speak
fluent English, Motu, Pisin and one other (local) language. We encourage all trekkers
to ask their guide or porter if they are unsure about what is being communicated.

What do you
need to bring?
During the day you will get quite hot and dirty so we encourage
you to bring one set of lightweight trekking clothes for day use,
and a another set of clothes that you can change into after you
have bathed in a local creek of crystal, clear mountain water
for night use. Always think lightweight when you are thinking
about what day and night options to bring. Most camping stores
offer quick drying clothes which are suitable for walking the
Kokoda Trail. You will need a sturdy 75-80ltr backpack that can
be adjusted so that 2/3 of the weight sits on your hips and 1/3
on your shoulders. Also ensure it has a well padded belt to avoid
chaffing. You will need a light sleeping bag, a good set of thermal
underwear (optional if you feel the cold), a self inflating sleeping
mat, personal tent, plate, canteen/cup and eating utensils. Also
think about grabbing a couple of plastic zip type bags that will
protect your spare clothing and other items inside your backpack,
just in case it rains while you are trekking.
One rimmed Hat or Peak Cap
Two shirts, one short sleeve & one long sleeve
Three pairs of lightweight camping shorts
One thermal top
One lightweight track suit
One or two man tent (free tent hire available)
Tarpaulin ground sheet to lay tent on in case of rain
One pair of bush walking boots (with good grip)
One pair of sneakers
One towel (the chamois sports towels)
One 70-85 litre back pack (free pack hire available)
One light sleeping bag
Pack Cover for when it rains
Whistle for attention
Camel pack (at least 2 litre capacity for water)
2 smaller water bottles to mix energy/ electrolyte drink
One pair of gaiters
One bandana for sweat
Four pair of good quality thick camping socks
One pair of thin socks
Two sets of underwear
One poncho style rain jacket or rain coat
One pair of lycra gym shorts. (optional)
One day pack
