Papua - New Guinea 2025 - Page 2

Greetings from Papua New Guinea! Today, on the first day of the program of the largest group of the season on Giluwe-Wilhelm, almost all the participants arrived in Mount Hagen and settled in the best hotel in the town "Highlander". Almost, because one participant was unlucky, his flight from Port Moresby was cancelled at the last moment, we hope that tomorrow, in the first half of the day, he will join us. The hotel is, in fact, very convenient and comfortable and is reliably protected by a high fence and security from the "raids" of the locals.

After a short rest, those who wanted to went to the local shopping center, some to buy a snack, some SIM cards, some fruit. Under the supervision of our partners, you feel quite confident and completely safe. After lunch, the participants' equipment was checked, and in the evening there was a traditional briefing and dinner, which lasted for three hours. The ascent to Giluwe, in itself, is not difficult, but nevertheless, there are many nuances. For example, almost the entire way you have to go in rubber boots because of the marshy areas and high humidity. Tomorrow we are moving in the direction of Giluwe, we will spend the night higher up in Magic Lodge. The name of the group is in development, we will definitely announce it tomorrow. Guides Olga Rumyantseva and Valery Myasoedov.
