Tawai Track

Tawai Track development on hold

The project is a community initiative of Vincent Kumura, the Digicel PNG Foundation Men of Honour and the Managing Director of the Snow Pass Eco-Lodge (SPEL) in Bundi.

His team will need about K50, 000 to develop a state-of-the-art tracking facility that meets the entire safety standard.

This 15km track offers an alternative for tourists who would like to track to Madang Province from EHP.

The track passes through some of the most breathtaking lookouts and views of the Ramu Valley, Mt. Wilhelm, Madang, Ramu Sugar, Goroka townships and many other notable sites.

The Tawai Track is the shortest route that connects Bundi to Kongi, Asaro in Eastern Highlands and is about 15 km long.

It is the shortest route to Madang Province from EHP, ascent on both sides is pretty steep and only for experienced trackers and adventurous hikers.
