Arunachal Pradesh, the land of the rising sun, is awe-inspiringly pretty with its picturesque mountains, snow-covered passes, magnificent monasteries, and high-altitude lakes. The mountainous state shares borderlines with China (Tibet) in the North, Myanmar (Burma) in the East, Bhutan in the West, and the states of Nagaland and Assam in the South. Home to at least 65 different tribal groups, Arunachal Pradesh is densely forested with 82% of green cover and receives an average rainfall of above 3000 mm per year.
If you are itching to explore the unexplored, join us on this trip to this land of the dawn-lit mountains - rich in natural and cultural heritage, but remains largely unexplored.

Day 03 | Sangti Valley
This morning, we head to the enchanting Sangti Valley, a hidden gem nestled among the Eastern Himalayan ranges.

In the winter months, Sangti Valley transforms into a sanctuary for the black-necked cranes, which migrate from China.
Witnessing these majestic birds in flight is a mesmerizing spectacle, as they soar against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks. By April-May, they return to their northern homes, leaving behind a memory that lingers long after they've gone.
