PGN is the airport code for Pangia, a settlement with an airstrip in the Southern Highlands of Papua New Guinea, in the rugged interior of the country. It lies in the mountainous highlands south of the main centres, in a landscape of steep ridges, valleys and gardens, home to traditional highland communities. Pangia is a district and local centre rather than a tourist destination, of interest mainly for its remote highland setting and cultures, in a densely populated but hard-to-reach part of the New Guinea highlands. The wider Southern Highlands are known for their dramatic mountain scenery and strong traditional cultures. Pangia is reached chiefly by rough mountain roads through the highlands and by light aircraft to its airstrip, so any journey here needs local arrangements and current advice. The climate is cool and wet, typical of the New Guinea highlands, with heavy rainfall.
