“Have you heard of the Giant of Giluwe?” | I wasn’t sure what Nathan was talking about. | “The Giant of Giluwe! You can see signs of him everywhere on this mountain. See down into that valley? All those small ponds, they were made by the Giant’s feet as he wanders across the grasslands.” | He was right, there were thousands of small tarns scattered across the valley floor. The dimming daylight reflected their mercurial surfaces emphasising their abundance. Were these made by a retreating glacier or what Nathan suggests, a Giant? | We were still a couple of hours from camp, on the slopes of the highest volcano in Oceania and the sun was rapidly descending towards its home for the evening. | “We must hurry on, we don’t want to be out in the night. The Giant may step on us.” Nathan chuckled and then swiftly moved on toward our camp.

Arriving in Port Moresby, you’ll take an internal flight to Mt Hagen airport and transfer to Kagguba Village to start the trek. Seven full days of trekking follow with an attempt on the Mt Giluwe summit halfway through. The itinerary of the trip may vary because the western section is unknown.
