A full-day tour takes you around this newly built location. The lifestyle of Lake Murray area is totally different from that of the highlands and the Sepik regions.

"Arambak" country is one of the most remote and unspoiled areas in the region. In a small riverboat, explore villages along the jungle-fringed waterways. Watch the people at Kundiman Village make use of the land in daily life, weaving baskets, and gathering, preparing and cooking their staple food from the Sago palm. (Karawari Lodge
Travel by riverboat to selected villages for an opportunity to observe village life and customs, participate in typical daily activities, and see re-enactments of traditional ceremonies. Dugout canoes glide close to the riverbanks, and stilted villages appear suddenly beside the flowing water.
