You will experience both mountain and rainforest in this ‘extreme trek’ to Papua New Guinea. You will Trek the Black Cat Track - the infamous route used by gold prospectors and explorer's in the early 20th century, and made famous during the Second World War for the harshness of its terrain.
Described by some as one of the toughest treks on the planet, you and your team will descend from the Highlands of Papua New Guinea down to the coast, staying in beautiful villages with incredibly friendly local tribes people and sleeping in hammocks in the jungle as you traverse this extraordinary landscape.Trekforce expert leaders will lead you into the trek slowly; as you acclimatise you get to visit local markets before heading deep into the rainforest for the last 8 days.
Highlights
- Experience the tribal cultures and hospitality of the Highlands
- Sleeping under canvas in incredible rainforest
- Building bamboo rafts and rafting through spectacular jungle to reach a stunning beach
