Team Building Programs in Kokoda Trail

50 kilometres east of Port Moresby lies a rugged trail named Kokoda Track or Kokoda Trail. The place is historical as it used to be the location of the 1942 World War II battle between Japanese and Allied – primarily Australian – forces in what was then the Australian territory of Papua.
Perfect for groups who love to trek and hike, Kokoda Trail offers a challenging but doable track. Not highly recommended for tourists without trekking experience but is a sure delight for those who love extreme adventures and team building activities.

KOKODA TRAIL

Kokoda Trail is an excellent location for team building activities, workshops, and retreats because of its historical significance and beautiful scenery. The Kokoda Trail was the site of a significant battle during World War II and is now a popular trekking destination. This trail provides an excellent opportunity for teams to bond through physical challenges and teamwork as they hike through the rugged terrain. The Kokoda Trail is also a great location to learn about Papua New Guinea’s history and culture.

Hiking/Trekking the Kokoda Trail

For team building in the Kokoda Trail, hiking is the main activity. Hiking the trail can take up to seven days, and teams will have to work together to overcome the physical challenges and support each other. Along the trail, there are several cultural sites to visit, including traditional villages and memorials commemorating the World War II battle. These sites provide excellent opportunities for teams to learn about the local culture and history.

Throughout the journey, you’ll be surrounded by the rich history and culture of Papua New Guinea, providing an immersive learning experience for your team.

Not only will you conquer physical challenges, but you’ll also have the chance to explore traditional villages and visit memorials that honor the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought in World War II. These cultural sites not only offer a glimpse into the local heritage but also serve as inspiration for your team as they learn from the past and embrace the present.

Embark on this extraordinary Kokoda Trail Team Building adventure, where camaraderie is strengthened, personal limits are surpassed, and the spirit of teamwork prevails.

Whats the best time to go to the Kokoda Trail?

The best time to go to the Kokoda Trail for team building is during the dry season, from May to October. During this time, the weather is cooler and drier, making hiking more comfortable. However, the trail can be crowded during peak season, so teams may want to consider traveling during the shoulder season for a more peaceful experience.
