Pre-trek Briefing

Picture
More information and guidelines will be furnished during the pre-trek briefing prior to your departure for your expedition. 

Some of the topics discussed at the briefing will include (but not limited to):
  • How to trek safely.
  • Lodging, meals and other conditions while on expedition.
  • Security and safety.
  • Tipping and gifts.
  • Evacuation procedures.
  • Cultural and environmental considerations.
  • Other relevant information.


Picture
It is very important that you attend this pre-trek briefing. Ensure that you find out from your expedition guide where and when the briefing will be held so you don't miss it. Usually it is held on the afternoon/night before you leave for trekking day one and is held somewhere in the hotel compound where the entire group can meet in comfort.

At the pre-trek briefing you will be asked to sign and return the liability release form. This form must be signed in PNG and given to the expedition guide before trekking.

If you have any questions about packing or a problem since arriving in PNG, now is the time to discuss it with your expedition guide.
