Day description

♦  Day 1: Arrival Wamena - Transfer to Starting Point Trekking; Walk to Kilise (L.D.)

In the morning we will depart from Wamena town to the starting point of the trek. During the trek simple but tasteful meals will be prepared. For your own comfort, you should bring your own sleeping bag, sleeping mat and a mosquito net. During the trek we will boil water from the nearby springs to drink.  There will be no/very limited electricity, so bring enough batteries for your camera or a portable charger. Accommodation during the trek will be very basic. We will stay the nights in local schools, churches or houses of the teachers of the villages, on the ground. Today we will already walk around 4 hours from the starting point before reaching our first overnight stay.

The next days we will be trekking through beautiful parts of the Baliem Valley. This great experience will take you through breathtaking landscapes and allows you to meet the traditional and intriguing tribes of the highlands. A good physical condition is necessary as well as no fear for heights. We will walk between 5-7 hours each day. We will have steep climbs and descending, cross hanging bridges and pass the beautiful gardens of the local villagers. Bring some warm clothes for the evenings as the nights can be chilly in these high altitudes.
