2025 Sunshine Coast Kokoda Challenge
Event location
Description
Organiser: Kokoda Youth Foundation
The Kokoda Challenge Sunshine Coast returns to Kenilworth with 18, 30 and 48 kilometre endurance events that take you on a scenic adventure through the mountainous Imbil State Forest. This isn't just an event; it's a test of your grit and determination. The challenging and rugged course includes steep inclines, treacherous mud, and challenging creek crossings, to pay tribute to the sacrifices of the Diggers who fought in the 1942 Kokoda Campaign. Take on a team challenge and push yourselves to new heights while giving back to your community. The funds raised support Kokoda Youth Foundation programs to help kids in the local community. The Kokoda Youth Programs provide disadvantaged and disengaged youth with the tools to realise their full potential by instilling the values of the Kokoda Spirit; Courage, Endurance, Mateship, and Sacrifice. Join in on ANZAC Day weekend, transform yourself, and leave a lasting impact.
