Just 30 minutes west of Brisbane CBD is the leafy suburb of Brookfield, your starting point for the Kokoda Challenge Brisbane. At Brookfield Recreation Reserve, join fellow hikers and trail runners tackling the 18, 30, or 48km course, rain or shine. Gather with your team to hear from Kokoda Youth Foundation Founder and Vietnam Veteran Doug Henderson, who shares insights about the 1942 Kokoda Campaign, honoring those who fought in WWII. The event pays tribute to their legacy with a reading of The Ode, followed by a moment of silence after The Last Post is played by the bugler to honor the fallen.
