At Back Track we employ professional trek leaders, ensuring a safe and informed holiday. Your trek leaders will explain the history at all the battle sites, give you an insight in to the culture of the people living in the villages and keep you well informed about each days objectives and most importantly, ensure that you all complete the trek safely. They attend to the smooth day-to-day operation of the trek so you can relax and enjoy the holiday. They remember their first time over the Track and they know the challenges you will face. It is your holiday and our crew are dedicated to ensuring that you complete the challenge and enjoy the experience. Some Back Track leaders have held Senior rank in the Australian Army and worked in elite miltary units. As we do not conduct our treks in a military format, we do not consider it important that all leaders on the Kokoda Track should have an army background. Understanding the Kokoda campaign If one of the reasons you wish to trek the Track is to gain a detailed understanding of the campaign and visit all the signifcant historical locations, then we would love to have you join us. Our Trek Leaders are knowledgible and passionate about the history of the Kokoda Campaign They have detailed knowledge of the campaign, the tactics used by both the Japanese and the Australian forces and they also know the personal stories of many who fought and died along the Track. Our Leaders carry selected maps, historic photos and other pictorial reference material which will be used to assist your understanding at all the briefings during your trek.

“…our Trek Leader, Megan made the difference. She was just great. She obviously loved her job and knew how to get our mixed mob of personalities over the Track. Her guidance and encouragement from Day 1 allowed me to relax and begin to enjoy the trekking lifestyle. She kept all of us fully informed of what was happening. Her encouragement helped us gain confidence in our ability to complete the trek. She kept us constatnly informed of each days walking goals. She kept us updated throughout each days walk with safety information, the best water sources, and set plans and explained how to conquer challenging sections of the Track as they were encountered. She was a great link between us and your trekking crew and the people along the Track. She soon had broken down all the barriers and had us (trekkers) and your trekking crew mixing and working together as a harmonious group. For me personally this was a highlight of the holiday. Megs even shed a tear or two with us as she relived a tragic war time tale at Cons Rock. ……… her knowlege of the campaign was unbelievable …………….Personally I feel that 1 or 2 members though fit enough may not have been able to finish the trek had it not been for Megs. We did have a lot of rain which made parts of the Track difficult but Megs worked with all of us passing on little tips to help us cope . This especially was the case with the 2 team members who were struggling. When they finished the trek and dropped their packs I could not hear what they said to her but it was obvious that they thanked her for getting them through. Having seen and experienced what the Track is all about, I would have no hesitation in recommending Back Track to anyone considering the trip. A couple I spoke with on the trail near Templetons from a group without a leader told me that for the last 5 days they really had no idea where they were and what was happening. They still had not really met all the other group members and the crew were great people and were helpful but aloof. They were struggling to work out from their guide book, any of the historic locations and what the campaign was all about. The head Guide was great but not all that interested or able to communicate about the war history. They were enjoying their own personal challenge but sorry they had not gone with a company that offered a little more service……..”.(IM, 2006)
