Trip advice for Goroka/Asaro and Madang

The first blog post with a lot of information for travelers to PNG, covering Goroka, Asaro, and Madang:

thanks - let us know when you have the sepik part

is it correct that this trip was 5 years ago in 2014 ?

Yes, this trip was back in 2014. Even though it was long ago, I've kept in sporadic contact with the guide from Wagu about once a year to check how they are doing there. Things seems quite similar as earlier.

I'm writing a couple of other trips in parallel so the Sepik and Wagu parts will take another one or two weeks to write the complete story.
I have already the maps and the posts with photo galleries, the short movie of the river boat, and the regional maps, if you want to start digging into it:

And for contacts of local guides to Sepik region and accommodation in Wewak and Sepik, check my older LP post:

Enjoy and let know if you need more info.

ok - also please do not refer to PNG as Papua - it is confusing as Papua is the eastern part of the island in Indonesia

everyone always says either PNG, Papua New Guinea or Papua Niugini

Good point, thanks. I'll change in the post to avoid confusions.

Hi,
