STONE KURUWAI EXPEDITION - INTENSIVE TOUR / PAPUA
|
Expedition through the northern TABU ZONE!
|
 |
A special pioneer expedition into the territories of the legendary STONE KURUWAI tribes in the southern pathless lowland
jungles.. We start this expedition by charter flight to Siradala, located at the upper branches of the West Siret
river. After 2 trekking days through the territories of the Kopkaka
tribes, we reach the “Siret node”, where West Siret and East Siret
meet. At the nearby river settlement Omongot, we will have our first contact with some Stone Kuruwai. Accompanied by selected guides and
porters, we start into the unknown pathless rainforests in south eastern direction to the airstrip Yanirumah. During this trekking tour, we firstly reach the treehouse settlement of the Ajak-Clan. After one day rest
there, we continue our trekking for two more days, before we reach the treehouses of the
Yamu-Clan. Here we take a longer rest, spending our time by watching the daily life of these unique forest
nomads. Further on, we continue trekking in direction to Yanirumah, crossing the fertile sago-swamps of the
Avium river, passing numerous picturesque treehouse settlements on our
way. From Yanirumah we take a flight back to Wamena, where we rest 2 days at the beautiful
THE
BALIEM VALLEY RESORT, before departing back home. Planned

In 1962 the mountain
was ascended for the first time by Heinrich Harrer. Expeditions to
this primeval ice-region require complex proceeds of permission. Dr.
Weiglein is according to his contacts one of a very small number of
persons who successfully organised this journey seven times. Exploring
the Pacific prime forests and snow mountains is an outstanding

Mamberamo - WITH
CROCODILE HUNTERS / expedition /
PAPUA
Sensational tour into the last "terra
incognita" of Papua
| Our
group will accompany native
crocodile hunters along the upper reaches of the enormous
Mamberamo river in the northern lowlands of West-Papua |
 |
We
will experience and watch with our own eyes how traditionally living
tribe people will track and hunt down giant crocodiles and see the
traditional using and meat allocation. One 6-8 meters long animal is
the minimum bag guaranteed during the hunting! Besides the intact
structures of the tribes with their traditional hunting rituals in
which the mythic legendary world of the giant crocodiles has the
highest interest, it is challenging to visit this absolutely untouched
jungle world, one of the most inaccessible and unaffected prime forest
regions of this planet. In
the recent past uncountable species (birds, insects, even mammals)
were entirely new discovered in the Mamberamo basin. This expedition
opens up a primal world, far away from any civilization and guarantees
pure adventure. The tour is not physically straining, as it is
performed by boats. There are no bigger trekking tours provided in the
boondocks. Planned

|
The settlement
area of the Momogo tribe, which are famous for their handicraft culture, is
located about 3-4 daytrips by motor boat from the southcoast at the upper
reaches of the river Pomats. We will experience a phantastic nature along
the unknown jungle rivers and reach some of the isolated settlements of the
Asmat tribes. The Biwak settlements of the Saw tribes are absolutely unique,
huge iglu-like shacks built of enormous Nippa palm leaves. The wood craft
and living culture of these Western Asmat tribes are still mostly intact and
we might have a chance to witness traditional sing-sings. The tour is not
straining as there are no trekking parts provided.
