Mysterious Lake Lau

Regarded as the source of the mighty Lagaip River, one of Papua New Guinea’s major river systems, Lake Lau remains one of the country’s least-visited natural treasures. With no roads leading to the lake, reaching it requires determination and a journey through some of the most remote landscapes in the Highlands.

For generations, the lake has held cultural and spiritual significance for local communities, adding to its mystique and importance.

Captured through the lens of Rocky Roe , this image offers a rare glimpse of a place few Papua New Guineans—and even fewer visitors—will ever see.
