Kokoda Track Challenge
2012
Kids Helpline and Inspired Adventures invite you to join us on a historical trip of a lifetime! Challenge yourself on this unforgettable 11-day adventure along the Kokoda Trail. You will learn about Australia’s historic battles and raise funds to help Kids Helpline continue providing free counselling services for children and young people who are experiencing issues such as bullying, sexual abuse, self harm and even suicide. What better fitness goal than travelling to Kokoda for the trek of a lifetime?

Kids Helpline is Australia’s only free, private and confidential 24-hour counselling service for children and young people.
