Mt. Hagen - A frontier town

Just about all flights to the Highlands go via Mount Hagen, so your stay could be as short as a plane turnaround or an overnight or two. Located at 5,000 feet above sea level, the air is clear and crisp. The attractions of this area are not in town but in the surrounding rolling hills stretching upwards to majestic mountains.

Drive through the fertile Waghi Valley dotted with small garden beds and large expanses of coffee and tea plantations. Visit the Mt. Hagen market, see a performance by the Chimbu Players, or take a nature walk.

Each bungalow has it's own private bathroom where you can enjoy a hot shower after a day of touring, then relax in front of the open fire after a home cooked meal.
