Head upcountry to

Daporijo in January

The Tagin country base on the Subansiri.

Quick answer. Deep winter at altitude. Snow closes or slows high passes; Sela conditions rule the Tawang circuit. For Daporijo specifically, January is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why January here

Hanging bridges, Tagin villages and the road north toward the high interior.

Daporijo is the Upper Subansiri headquarters on the Subansiri river: Tagin villages across hanging bridges, orange orchards, and the route north through Taliha toward the high interior. Si-Donyi, the Tagin festival, lands in early January.

What to do

Hanging bridges

Cane-and-wire crossings to hill villages.
