What to Know About Ok Bape

Key Facts

Ok Bape is a district (kecamatan) located in the Pegunungan Bintang Regency of Papua Province, Indonesia. Situated in the central highland region of Papua, this remote district lies within the rugged Star Mountains range that gives the regency its name, characterized by steep mountainous terrain, dense tropical forests, and numerous river systems. The district serves as an administrative center for several indigenous communities, primarily from the Ngalum and other Papuan ethnic groups who have inhabited these highlands for centuries. With an approximate area of around 1,200 square kilometers, Ok Bape maintains a relatively small population estimated at fewer than 5,000 residents, living in scattered settlements across the challenging topography. The district is divided into multiple villages (desa) that form the basic administrative units serving the local communities. Transportation access remains limited, primarily relying on small aircraft to nearby airstrips and difficult overland routes that can become impassable during the rainy season. Economic activities are predominantly subsistence-based, including traditional agriculture, hunting, and gathering, with some small-scale trade in local products. For those seeking to access postal services or communicate with residents in this remote district, understanding the specific village-level postal codes within Ok Bape is essential for reliable mail delivery and communication.
