What to Know About Gearek

Key Facts

Gearek is a district (kecamatan) located within the Nduga Regency of Papua Province, Indonesia. Situated in the central highlands of Papua, Gearek occupies a strategic position within the rugged mountainous terrain that characterizes much of the Nduga region. This remote district covers an area of approximately 1,200 square kilometers and serves as an important administrative and cultural center for the local indigenous communities. Gearek is divided into several villages that are home to a population of around 8,000-10,000 people, primarily from the Dani and other Papuan ethnic groups who maintain traditional lifestyles and agricultural practices. The district's economy is predominantly based on subsistence farming, with sweet potatoes being the staple crop, supplemented by hunting and gathering activities in the surrounding forests. Gearek's challenging topography, with elevations ranging from 1,500 to 2,500 meters above sea level, contributes to its relative isolation and limited infrastructure development. As part of the broader administrative structure, Gearek district contains multiple village-level administrative units that facilitate local governance and service delivery. For residents and organizations needing to access postal services or communicate with specific locations within this district, accurate postal code information for its constituent villages is essential for effective correspondence and administrative functions.
