Arunachal Pradesh · 7 Nights / 8 Days
A well-paced Tawang circuit with three nights in the mountains, time to acclimatise and a return via Bomdila.
This is our recommended way to experience western Arunachal. It spreads the climb over several days, gives Tawang three nights and returns by a different rhythm, with a night at Bomdila and a final night at Tezpur.
Nameri and Bhalukpong offer a gentle start in the foothills. Activities in this area depend on the season and on local arrangements.
