Australian and PNG leaders walk the Kokoda Track ahead of Anzac Day dawn service | SBS News

SBS’s Pablo Vinales talks to Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and PNG’s Prime Minister James Marape while the two men follow the challenging 16 kilometre Kokoda track to the Isurava Memorial site, for the Anzac Day dawn service.

The Kokoda Track is a symbol of the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of both Australian and Papua New Guinean soldiers who defended against the Japanese advance.

Stretching through rugged mountain terrain and dense jungle in Papua New Guinea, the trail was a crucial lifeline during the Pacific campaign. Its challenging terrain, coupled with sometimes harsh weather conditions, tests the endurance of all who traverse it.
