Adventure Kokoda Sustainability Actions

Supports PNG guides and carriers

Adventure Kokoda says it is the only trekking company that provides its PNG guides and carriers with sleeping bags, sleeping mats, and a full trek uniform. This is a practical welfare measure for staff working on a remote trail. The company also says it operates from a secure lodge at Sogeri with 24/7 backup communications and its own helipad for emergencies, which points to a strong focus on worker and trekker safety.

Gives detailed health guidance

The company publishes long health and hygiene advice for trekkers, including guidance on dehydration, heat exhaustion, heat stroke, food allergies, foot care, and water purification. It tells trekkers to wash hands before meals and after toilet stops, use purification tablets, and report any health changes to the trek leader. This shows a clear effort to reduce health risks on the trail and to manage safety in a difficult outdoor setting.

Uses local trail logistics

Adventure Kokoda says it buys food from supermarkets in Port Moresby and asks trekkers with special dietary needs to tell the company in advance. If needed items cannot be sourced locally, trekkers are told to bring them and the company will reimburse the cost in Papua New Guinea. This shows a local purchasing approach for at least part of its food supply, while also showing the limits of what can be sourced in a remote location.

Promotes Kokoda heritage

The company runs treks that focus on the history of the Kokoda campaign and says its itineraries are designed to give people a meaningful pilgrimage experience. It also promotes youth leadership and educational treks, including a Kokoda Youth Leadership Challenge. While this is not a formal conservation program, it does support cultural and historical awareness linked to the trail and its communities.
