Epic Backpacking Trail in Papua New Guinea | Trackin’ Dirt
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- When it boils right down to it, Papua New Guinea (PNG) is one of the most interesting locations I’ve ever travelled to. Although I had an idea of what to expect, like the endless miles of beautiful and challenging terrain, I was blown away by what lay in store for us.
Of all the things to say about PNG, the amazingly rich culture is what really stood out to me. Getting to know the locals, dance with them and celebrate with them, was truly an honor and is something I will remember forever. I am so excited to share my experiences with you in the first episode of our latest series, Trackin’ Dirt!

I was born and raised in Papua New Guinea! 🇵🇬🇵🇬👍👋! 😄 I was born in MT. Hagen.. western highlands province. Raised in the southern highlands. In the widu valley! I speak English, widu, imbangu, kewabe, my home! I’m a citizen! 😁🇵🇬👋
I grew up in PNG and still speak Tok Pisin fluently...I did the Kokoda twice during high school there, once flying in like you and walking back and then also going the other way from Sogeri to Kokoda. Back then no porters and no commercialism...we carried our own packs and just had one guide. If you get back, do the Yongai to Woitape trek, climbing Mt Albert Edward along the way...beautiful scenery...great memories from PNG, beautiful people and beautiful country. Then go to New Ireland, hire a bicycle and cycle down the Boluminski Highway, just to see a beautiful island and stop at the villages along the way..chew some buai lol.
thats awesome man, do you ever go back?
@@thvtsydneylyf3th077 Hi mate, yeh a few times but not since 2010. Went up there to help my Dad pack up before he moved to Australia for health reasons. Awesome country and 99% of the people are just humble and good hearted. The cities give the place a bad name and the raskols, but the rest stunning and pure beauty, especially love the Highlands and the mountains and rivers.
GOOD TOURISTS TO DESTROY DO NOT PROTECT YOUR COUNTRY SAD
An you stap.where may!!?
I've got a stream of income, that is an online business which is currently making me more than $20k monthly, it's called an advance asset trade, if you’re interested in making good income online I can send you some more info on how it worked for me.
I am off to PNG in only a couple of weeks as of October 2023. I am hoping for an incredible adventure! Wish I could hear from you.
I am glad you're visiting PNG. I am traveling up there with my wife in January 2024.
you're amazing mate! Love the doc, got me emotional... PNG is untouched virgin environment, riches with natural and magical places, makes us wonders, how blessed it is.. LOVE from Philippines... God bless PNG
Thank you so much bro, I’m from Papua New Guinea Living in the Philippines...I love your comment.... Salamat Kuiya
@@joewagi6901 Is Papua New Guinea really that dangerous like what reported by many news medias?
Barii koii ✊
@@ardi08 Hi bro, not true. Friendly people. It's the people who don't go out that says it's dangerous but not us all are dangerous. Everywhere in this world, there's good and bad. We are happy to always welcome new people into our country and show them our beautiful country with spectacular places to visit. Cheers, from Lae, Morobe

Thank you for showing Papua New Guinea to the world.
As a Papua New Guinean, I am so proud of my country. Thank you for showcasing the beauty warmth and hospitality of my people. I am sure this was a life-changing and wonderful experience for you. I know and hope these videos will make a positive impact on my people and country and encourage more visitors to visit more places that are so beautiful but most importantly the beauty of our culture and people...
Thank you for Promoting Papua New Guinea
Wow! It emotionally pains me seeing this. The beauty of this country, dense forests, rural villages, the diverse cultures, even dirt and just the smiles from the people and children with nothing but sense of happiness . How amazing. Thanks for visiting.
I agree. Seeing people that are happy enrages me.
Your truly are a genuine guy. Other tourists, travelers or visitors etc.. should learn from you by mingling with the locals and have personal experience of the culture and people by physically living with them like u did. Instead, they stay in hotels in the city and make up all sorts of negetive stories about this beautiful country. There's more this country has to offer if they would only pick up their lazy butts and get out of the hotel rooms to experience other parts of PNG. Well done and keep up the good work your doing..
Thanks David!
Wow great approach to life Bồ, making assumptions about people based on where they stay on holiday. If only you would pickup your lazy butts and don’t judge people on holiday accommodations 🤦🏻♂️.
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
This is the "kokoda track" in Papua New Guinea. The rugged mountain terrain where WW2 war battle took place between Australia and Japanese soldiers. It's part of history now.😊😊
I am Papua New guinean. Born and raised. ❤ Just found these.. beautiful..
Damn! You visited my home 🏡. Tears rolling when seeing all my people at malbanga. Thank you for making an awesome video.
"They have nothing but they'll give you everything". That's PNG! And I genuinely enjoyed watching you experience that 🙌 ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was a great video to see what PNG is like. Coming from Vanuatu where it is also a Melanesian country in the Pacific region, it was interesting to note how the culture of PNG is diverse and serene, am amazed by it all. Looking forward to more of your videos in the future. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the video, Pascal!
crazy indeed.. people's warm welcome is amazing, well they're isolated and get excited when some one comes to their village
It's making me emotional. I love how the people being nice to you there. I'm from the coast of png. But big thanks to ya❤️❤️
PNG is one of my favorite countries!
I'm from East Sepik, East New Britain and Manus, three of the nations provinces. Thanks for checking out my country. Your an absolute legend and have just earned yourself another subscriber

Was emotional watching. My beloved PNG is amazing. Thanks for sharing PNG with the rest of the world.
Papua New Guinea is beautiful with kind hearted people .
Walked in 5 days with my school mates in 1984..great experience and real challenge as we bonded as brothers.
Eric - Thank you so much for sharing such an amazing experience of yours. I really enjoyed watching and learning something new today. Glad to know you are from Arizona. I experienced an incredible journey of yours from the comfort of my chair. You are an inspiration for potential dreamers like myself, as I am wishing to go on extensive hikes and learn the existence of amazing parts in this world. Thanks a bunch🙏🏻
Lived here my whole life and never hiked the Kokoda. After watching this video, I want to try it out
I am a PNGean and thankful that you got to experience this wonderful country of ours. The people, culture and languages make it s exotic destination to explore.
When he was jumping over the rope and seeing the reactions of the children, seeing that made me emotional. Amazing.
Probably one of my favorite moments, too.
I first learned about PG on a Survivorman episode ,it was pretty awesome and this was pretty amazing too.👍
What an amazing experience!!
Thank you visiting png one love.
Nature is lush. I would like stay there.
Well presented documentry .Thanks so much for visiting Kum caves,bring back my childhood memories of wild fruits and nut pickings,harvesting mushrooms etc in that part of the jungle.Ronden Ridge.
Your experience of courtship rituals and those paint on your nose( LOL!) I believe you enjoyed your stay. BTW am from that part of the province Malbanga, Jiwaka Province PNG.
I loved my time! One of my fondest travel memories. You have a beautiful and wonderful country.
Truly amazing.Thanks for the video. My country Papua New Guinea
Unbelievably beautiful! Bravo for sharing your adventure with us! More please!
The western highlands of Papua New Guinea is one of if not the THE wetest part of the planet. In some of those parts it rains 365 days a year. When I hiked there I soon dispensed of my shoes, for several reasons. One, they held the moisture against your feet and you would get jungle rot and fungus. 2, leeches liked to go down underneath your socks, but if you are barefoot, the plants and the water brushes them off 3, the treads of boots just fill up with mud and become smooth and slippery so you have no traction. But with bare feet, when climbing up the muddy trails, you learn to dig your big toe into the mud to pull yourself up. 4, you have to cross a lot of streams. With shoes on it's harder to feel where to step. Some rocks are much slipperier than others. I like to feel around with bare feet for the best next foothold. I ended up having to help the locals across a river one by one holding their hand, because I was much taller, and they would be swept away without me. I am tall and thin, and sideways against the current I was not as much of a resistance.
You did us PNG proud.❤ it! Following from Enga Province, PNG
You been to my Place ..and just by watching this brought tears to my eyes as you embrace our culture perfectly
Nice experience with new places, beautiful kids, best environment, best food, best culture . Thanks for visit my country. Hope to see your next visit. ❤🎉

It's an amazing place, Rex! Hope you enjoyed the video!
I really enjoyed watching your clip brother. I'm from next province in western Highlands u visit called ENGA. Enga is land of real mystery and I miss my home. I'm here now is Switzerland
Eric you danced well like a true local. 👏👏
This is an amazing video! would love to travel here
It's truly incredible. I recommend it!
Bro I love your videos please visit Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 again.. I'm watching with tears ❤
Yeah of course I am Papua New Guiean, and would like to say what you have seen in this video is real, not just a dream, in Papua New Guinea most people don't live in the cities or towns , the majority of the population lives in the villages all around the country.
Such a beautiful docu/vlog. Being from PNG I really appreciate the 100% positive presentation of whatP PNG has to offer. Yes, we have many problems in the country, but which country doesn't have them?
Most times PNG hits the headlines for negative reasons only. Such reports are really valuable and important to promote the unique culture and hospitality of our people. Thank you so much.
In case you are interested in visiting the Simbu Province and climb Mt Wilhelm or hike to Madang via the Bundi road....let me know...I can help arrange for you.
DESTROYING YOUR COUNTRY WITH TOURISM WILL MAKE IT GARBAGE

Love your Video. I'm truly blessed to watched. You're such an amazing person.
You live a memory in our hearts thank you Papua New Guinea ♥️ you.
Thank you tracking dirt back packing PNG. More on PNG
Thank you for representing our country well...come again to PNG some times!
Your account of Papua New Guinea is truer than Zac Efron's.
The game with the jumping over the rope. I used to play that growing up all the time. So fun!
I'm glad you visited PNG. Happy you liked it.
You should go back and visit other places.
Great video buddy😇
Would love to go back!
I think this is like the best video I have watched so far for a foreigner coming into my country PNG and experiencing lifestyle here. Gutpla video.
I'm your subscriber now brother. Next time, visit my province ENGA , next to western Highlands you went visit. Enga is real mystery places Like : Lakes, Waterfalls, raging rivers, Jungles, caves and more that you will never find in any parts of the world. If I'm there in my country, i would take you to my village and you will never forget the Journey but I'm in Europe now.
YOU BECAME A WESTERN COLONIALIST, I FROM GREECE, I HATE EUROPE, WHY DO YOU TELL THEM TO DESTROY YOUR COUNTRY WITH TOURISM?
Yes. In 1991 it was, I hiked from Maramuni in Enga province down to the Sepik.
Love this video mate🙏❤️ thank you for sharing PNG 🇵🇬 with the world 🥰
I loved it. That was a great video. Thank you for sharing it with us Eric.
That roadside fruits market at 13:09 is one of the best.

Super stunning video there, thankyou for visiting my Island 🏝 home
An absolute beauty. That was amazing. Awesome coverage Eric. For you to come all the way out here to experience first hand what Papua New Guinea is all about and for being genuinely honest enough to give a positive impression about PNG, its diverse cultures & traditions and of course its beautiful people and the histories, it's really worth it. You're a greate friend and brother. I'm proud of you and my country. God bless your heart and may God protect you as you tour other beautiful places of the world.

YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT TOURISM DESTROYING ONLY THE PROMOTION CARES YOU
Thank you for sharing videos from our country throughout the world 🇵🇬🇵🇬🇵🇬👏👏👏❤️👍
I absolutely loved this episode. Wow.. What an amazing experience. Well done 👏.
thank you so much!
Beautiful doc. about PNG brother.
Thank you!
Wow, just love it
What water filter are you using on this trip?
Hey Henry, thanks for reaching out! On this trip I was using the Grayl Ultralight water purifier. - EH
You are a Legend.
Can we png stop commenting. Let other people comment.
Great video. I liked it a lot, and I subscribed. I once heard that one could see butterflies the size of dinner plates in PNG, and I was sold on it right then and there. I love sugar gliders, and there are native sugar gliders there...I would so much like to see a sugar glider in the wild. If I die without going there, I will die with regrets.
But I have a question, and I like to pose this question to adventuresome travelers in general. This video was made four years ago, but today PNG is rated as US State Department Level 3 reconsider travel. It was likely rated the same when you visited. Port Moresby and Southern Bougainville are particular hot spots. So from your experience would you recommend people to reconsider travel to PNG (in general or to specific spots)?
kinda want to lost there
Looks AMAZING!!
Great attitude regarding the trek…
Wow, where in Western highland did you go? I am from there
Hiked the Komodo in 1982…… just two of us with no guides. Not many people doing the track in 1982.
I owe your channel a subscription coz I'm from Papua New Guinea. Thankyou for this nice video 🙏
Nice,
Most organically grown. gutpela means good
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome
I’m 19 want to trek wondiwoi. Can’t find people. Any tips
There might be some local hiker forums/facebook groups you can post for hiking companions. Otherwise, go solo?
Thanks
Thank you for visiting, you have a gained a new subscriber from a Niugini lad.
