HOW CAN I PREPARE MY FEET FOR A KOKODA TREK?

Care of your feet prior to and during your Kokoda trek is of the upmost importance. To prevent problems such as tinea it is recommended you use a hand sanitizer to rub between your toes every day to kill off bacteria. Every time you dry your feet sprinkle them with an antibacterial powder. Tinea cream, ‘Resolve’ is also suggested to combat tinea.

Tea Tree antibacterial spray is an antiseptic for management of tinea as well of minor wounds and skin abrasions.
Blisters, if you feel a hotspot stop immediately and rub something like paw paw ointment on the area or a blister band aid. You do not want to develop blisters when trekking. Ensure your hiking boots are worn in and you wear good socks to keep your feet in the best possible condition.
