Australia's Kokoda Campaign
Between 21 July and 13 November 1942, fighting against Imperial Japanese forces, Australian soldiers twice traversed the Kokoda Trail – an arduous route across the rugged jungle terrain of Papua New Guinea. This hard-fought campaign in some of the worst conditions experienced by Australian soldiers ensured the name Kokoda a special place in the Anzac legend. The Cove proudly brings you the history of Australia's Kokoda Campaign.
