Gold Coast Kokoda Challenge

Join the Kokoda Challenge on July 15, and test your physical and mental limits by walking through the Gold Coast Hinterland over a distance of 30km, 48km, or 96km. This endurance event is Australia’s toughest team challenge and will push you to the brink of your capabilities. With over 4,000 meters of elevation and 39 hours of walking through the day and night, regardless of weather conditions, you will experience a test of strength and determination. The challenging course includes inclines, mud, and creeks, and pays tribute to the sacrifices of the Diggers who fought in the 1942 Kokoda Campaign. Take on a personal challenge and give back to your community. The funds raised support Kokoda Youth Foundation programs to help kids in the local community. The Kokoda Youth Programs provide disadvantaged and disengaged youth with the tools to realise their full potential by instilling the values of the Kokoda Spirit; Courage, Endurance, Mateship, Sacrifice. Past competitors have called this event “physically and emotionally exhausting, but also the most incredible and inspiring thing we completed.” Every step is worth it as you prove to yourself what you are truly made of.
