CLIMATE
The weather is generally monsoonal, meaning most areas are hot and humid, with heavy seasonal precipitation. The ‘wet’ occurs during the Australian summer (November through early March), with the drier period during our winter (May to October). At this time, in the Moresby and Popondetta regions, daytime temperatures will be around 30 degrees, and the evening around 20 degrees. On the track itself it will be cooler, with the higher areas around Mt Bellamy (approximately 2,200 metres) dropping to around five degrees at night.
