Holidays in Kar

Sick of being an armchair traveller? Keen to experience the real deal? Kar is the perfect place to start. It sits among the stunning rural landscapes of Papua New Guinea. (You might have to veer off the tourist trail a little, but isn't that what travelling is all about?)

It's located 540 kilometres northwest of the capital of Papua New Guinea, Port Moresby.

You'll find a number of lovely natural sights just outside of Kar. Why not travel 25 kilometres to Lake Kutubu? Alternatively, you can admire the picturesque sights of skull caves, 25 kilometres away.

If you have ample time, why not check out a few nearby places? Mendi and Kagua are 25 kilometres and 45 kilometres away, respectively.

Feel like something a bit more active? For a memorable journey over the region's landscapes, try out some mountain climbing or hiking.

Unsure what to see and do first? Often the best way to take it all in is to sign up for a tour or two. The region offers some excellent guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours.

Want to have a bit of fun off solid ground? Papua New Guinea is a great place to make a splash with some swimming and snorkeling. They're must-do activities, even for the biggest landlubber!

You're bound to see a range of treasures squashed into the region's craft workshops.

Searching for something outside that will suit everyone? The local area is home to some wonderful open-air markets.

Delight your inner history buff by making your way to the surrounding war relics and monuments. They're exceptional places to discover some secrets about the region's past.

'There is no love sincerer than the love of food,' George Bernard Shaw once said, but add travel to the mix and it's a match made in heaven. You're invited to unite your two loves by eating and drinking your way across Papua New Guinea.

Typical cuisine here often includes breadfruit (ulu) and coconuts, two regularly used ingredients for which the local area is famous for serving up.

Are you searching for a classic Kar eating experience? There are some signature dishes to watch out for, such as chicken pot and kokoda fish.

If you never say no to dessert, we don't think you'll be disappointed. Try saksak (dumplings made with sugar and sago), an enticing treat that's guaranteed to hit your sweet spot.

Held annually on the 16th of September, Independence Day holds an important place in the hearts and minds of the locals. It offers an excellent chance to learn about the country's history and have a little fun while you're at it!

It might be time to leave and head home, but it needn't be forever. Why not save your spare Papua New Guinean kinas for another getaway to this attractive region?
