The remote Indonesian province of Papua is home to the Baliem River, a wild waterway of epic rapids. No-one has ever dared navigate the full length of the river. Until now. In a world first, Steve Backshall takes on the toughest challenge of his career: a complete descent of the Baliem. Along the journey, Steve infiltrates a notorious cannibal tribe, attempts to trap one of the world's biggest saltwater crocodiles, and searches for the beautiful and elusive birds of paradise. This is extreme nature - an adrenalised adventure where anything could happen. No outside support. No shortcuts. No limits
