About
Support our team and empower local youth!
Our team are tackling Australia’s toughest team endurance event, the Kokoda Challenge, and we need your help! We’re not just hiking for ourselves, we’re hiking for a cause – to fundraise for the Kokoda Youth Foundation who run life-changing programs for young people across Australia. Their programs provide disengaged youth with the skills, knowledge and outdoor experiences that grow the Kokoda values of Courage, Endurance, Mateship and Sacrifice. They have provided these fully-funded programs to hundreds of young people since 2004, thanks to the help of Kokoda Challenge participants, like us. Your donation will help more young people realise their potential.
Thank you to our Sponsors

To my Superstar Jake, Meow 🐾 As a cat, I usually avoid long walks unless they lead directly to snacks, so I think you’re incredibly brave taking on the Kokoda challenge. I’ll be cheering you on from my favourite sleeping zone and sending you high-fives with my paws, believe in yourself, you’ve got this! Purrs, head boops and making biscuits 😻 Pebbles xx
