Lorentz National Park: Private Jungle Trek into a UNESCO Wilderness

Plunge into Lorentz National Park — the largest protected area in Southeast Asia and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — on a private expert-guided trek through primeval rainforest teeming with birds of paradise and endemic flora.

What to expect

Your certified wilderness guide leads you along forest trails where the canopy closes overhead and the air fills with the calls of Wilson's bird of paradise and Papuan hornbills. Trek across moss-carpeted root systems, ford shallow streams, and pause at viewpoints where the lowland jungle stretches unbroken to the horizon. The guide provides a running commentary on traditional Dani plant medicine and the park's extraordinary biodiversity. Cold towels and a gourmet packed lunch are standard on the luxury private option.

Good to know
