Summary The elusive Kokoda Trail is a single file footpath that runs 96 kilometers (60 miles) in a straight line through the Own Stanley Mountain Range in southern Papua New Guinea (PNG). The trail is well known first as a historical trading route between local communities, and second as the scene of major fighting between Australian and Japanese forces in World War II. It was said that more soldiers died because of the extreme natural elements than from the fighting. As the hot humid days give way to the intensely cold nights, and torrential rainfall occurs multiple times per day it becomes clear how this can lead to tropical diseases, dysentery and a host of other serious health concerns. Join Ryan Pyle as he climbs Mount Wilhelm at 4,509m (14, 793 feet) in central PNG before attempting the arduous and historic Kokoda Trail.
