Whether you’re looking to explore local Papua New Guinea culture, hike extreme mountains or just take in the rural beauty of fertile valleys, The Highlands has it all. With soaring saw-tooth mountains such as Mt Wilhelm which scratches the sky at almost 15,000 feet and the second tallest, Mount Giluwe, which eeks in just above 14,000 feet, there’s plenty of adventurous climbing for even the most rugged travellers.
