# Trekking in PNG in October Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Papua New Guinea
Ciccio26 11:12 UTC 28 Sep 2015 | Hey! Im planing a 1 week trek in october. Still haven't really decided the exact days. So Im pretty flexible. I really would like to climb Mt.Wilhelm and than trek down to the cost to Madang! But flexible in that too! As I've checked the prices of guides, PNG seems a bit an expensive place to travel solo, so it would be very nice to join some people...if anyone is around, put up your hand 😉 My other question is, if Mt.Wilhelm and surroundings is my starting point, would it be better to fly from Port Moresby to Mt.Hagen or Goroka? Gratefull for any answer! Patrick |
