Papua New Guinea is a raw land, remarkably untamed and as variegated as swamp and jagged limestone; mud and moss forest; suffocating heat and Highland chill; plumed, pearl-shelled villagers and prosaic hill people; tiny tree kangaroos and enormous Queen Alexandra Birdwing butterflies.
Climbing to the 4509m (14,790ft) summit of Mt Wilhelm has long been a highlight for many visitors to the country's Highlands. It's hard work, but on a clear day you can see both the north and south coasts of the mainland. If you don't plan on tackling the summit, the region around the base offers fantastic walking and dramatic landscapes.
Travelers should be cautious and aware of the risk of crime when in Port Moresby, Lae and Mt Hagen. All travel to the Southern Highlands, except on essential business, should be avoided because of high levels of crime and inter-tribal violence. Travelers should stay away from the no-go zone around the former Panguna mine in Bougainville.
