Travel to Papua With Us

Deep in the remote rainforest of southern Papua, the Korowai people maintain one of the most unique and traditional lifestyles in Papua. Living far from modern city, they are known for their remarkable Tree Houses, built high above the forest floor.

Tree Houses in the Jungle

The Korowai construct their homes 10 to 20 meter high-sometimes even up to 50 meters- in tall rainforest tress. These elevated houses protect them from:

• Wild animals
• Mosquitoes
• Tribal conflicts

Built entirely from natural forest materials, the houses demonstrate extraordinary survival skills and deep knowledge of the jungle environment.

Traditional way of life

A visit to the Korowai Tribe offers a rare opportunity to witness authentic tribal life. Their daily activities include:

• Hunting and trapping in the forest
• Fishing in Jungle rivers
• Collecting sago grubs (Ulat Sago)
• Processing sago as their primary staple food

Sago cultivation and preparation remain central to their diet and culture. Life here continues much as it has for generation, closely connected to nature and ancestral tradition.
