The Kokoda Track is Open

11/2/2018

Comments

 
​The Kokoda Track is OPEN. Government officials and other Landowners have moved in to persuade the small band of landowners that were blocking the Track to move aside and stop potentially ruining the many benefits tourism brings to local communities along the Track. Congratulations to the Local leaders and the various departments that have achieved this excellent outcome.

Kokoda College and No Roads Health

4/7/2016

Comments

 
A GREAT MILESTONE - We have been working with The KTF (Kokoda Track Foundation) over the years to support the development of The Kokoda College where Health Care Workers and Teachers could be trained close to their villages. Today Dan Hogarth and Nick Youings from No Roads - Health fly to PNG and on to Kokoda where they will conduct, on behalf of the KTF, an entry level first aid course for prospective Community Health Care Workers. 20+ participants have been nominated to to take part (5 sponsored by the No Roads Expeditions Foundation). This is the next step to providing a sustainable solution to the lack of health care in these villages. Travel safe Dan & Nick - we a super proud of you.

Light Rail Idea for the Kokoda Track?

12/3/2016

Comments

 
Have you read the story in the Australian regarding the suggestion to build a light rail system along the Kokoda Track.

The suggestion made by Roger Marchant is fanciful. He imagines hotels in Efogi and Isurava and thinks it wouldn't be so hard to build as it is only 100 kms. All that aside, Kokoda and visiting these sites is made special because we as Trekkers must endure some hardship to get there, to experience a little of what the diggers did in 1942.

​That gives us a deeper understanding and makes The Kokoda experience transformative. We know more people would visit the place but the vigour of the story would be lost and then there would no purpose to visit at all. What do you think!
