It’s a tough choice to make when it comes to trekking in the North East, but we’re picking Bomdila in Arunachal Pradesh, for the sparkling Jia Bhoroli river, tribal villages and people, and the views of Himalayan peaks along the trek. We recommend a 10-12 day trek to get the real feel of things, and also so you get a range of climbs – from the gentle slopes for a few snow and ice climbs too. This one takes you through the famed Tawang monastery, the Nameri National Park and the oldest tribal village Monpa – win-win situations all around!
Price: INR 40,000 upwards per person for 12 days, including accommodation.
Best time to visit: October, November and February to May
Closest airport: Tezpur, Assam {151 kilometres}
