Rondon Ridge

Rondon Ridge is just out of Mt Hagen.  It is run by Trans Niugini Tours.  The views from the ridge are amazing.  The chef is pretty good too!

I have been there for coffee, lunch and for a weekend (one night).

Getting there can be a bit of a challenge (a great deal of work has been done in 2014 and it is good).  I have walked there and it takes a few hours to walk up there but great for your glutes and hamstrings.  If you drive, you need a 4WD .  This is the main reason I don't visit here more often. (Not any more, the road is good and a 2WD should be ok if road is dry.)

Birgit, Melina and I went to celebrate Melina's birthday.  The room was beautiful and each bed had a small hand carved wooden pig on it.  We were the only ones staying there.  In the afternoon we took a short walk around through the bush.  Then at night we enjoyed sitting on the porch taking in the lights of Mt Hagen while having a sing along.

You need to ring at least the day before and let them know you are coming up for a meal and obviously if you want to stay.  This gives them time to make sure they have food and to open the gate.
