About The Trip
Into the Remote Heart of Arunachal Pradesh
Some journeys are about reaching a destination.
This one is about how far you are willing to go.
Beginning in Guwahati, travel east across Assam towards Dibrugarh before crossing into Arunachal Pradesh and entering the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas.
From Roing, the road begins to climb.
Travel through the dense forests and mountain landscapes surrounding Mayudia Pass before continuing deeper into Dibang Valley towards Anini — one of Arunachal Pradesh’s most remote district headquarters, surrounded by the Dri and Mathun river systems and the homeland of the Idu Mishmi community.
Spend two days in and around Anini discovering remote villages, traditional homes, riverside landscapes, mountain viewpoints and the everyday life of communities living far from India’s conventional tourism circuits.
The itinerary remains intentionally flexible around Anini so that local experts can choose the best experiences according to weather, road accessibility and local conditions.
With transportation, accommodation, selected meals, Inner Line Permit, local experiences and complete driver support arranged throughout the journey, this expedition is designed for travellers who want to experience Arunachal Pradesh at its wildest and most authentic.

Important Travel Note
Remote Terrain & Flexible Planning
Everything is laid out clearly up front — no surprise costs, just a worry-free mountain escape.
Dibang Valley is a remote Himalayan region where weather and road conditions can change quickly.
The itinerary, particularly local exploration around Anini, may therefore be adjusted by the on-ground team depending on:
- Weather conditions
- Road accessibility
- Landslides or temporary road closures
- Local administrative requirements
- Safety considerations
- Availability of local experiences
Such changes will always prioritise traveller safety while preserving the overall character of the expedition.
