Selamat Datang Di Kombai-Korowai!
Day 1
We will fly from Denpasar, Bali to Jayapura, Papua. Check into the hotel and get our
travel permit. We will also get the necessary food supplies that we will need for our trek
into the Korowai Batu area.
Day 2
We will fly in the early morning on a TRIGANA AIR SERVICE airplane to the DEKAI area-the main regency. To get into the Korowai Batu, we will first have to start in LOGBOND territory. Then we go through Korowai area and finally into Korowai Batu area. We will get our porters ready and then spend some time getting to know the village chief and we will overnight in a former Missionary house OR TREE HOUSE.
Day 3, 4,5,6,7, we will spend these 6 days trekking is some of the most pristine lowland rain forest in the world. Along the way we will try and stay with the various tribes that inhabit the
region. The Korowai are more territorial than the neighboring Kombai. And the Korowai
Batu is even more so. These tribes still practice cannibalism. And they can be
aggressive. Don’t worry they won’t eat us. It is ritual cannibalism among the tribes.
