Cross over to
Roing in January
The Idu Mishmi valley below Mayudia.
Quick answer. Deep winter at altitude. Snow closes or slows high passes; Sela conditions rule the Tawang circuit. For Roing specifically, January is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why January here
Dibang valley’s base: Mehao lake, Idu Mishmi culture and the Reh festival in February.
Roing sits under the Dibang valley wall in Idu Mishmi country: the Mehao lake forest walk, the old Bhismaknagar ruins, and the road up through Mayudia pass toward Anini. Reh, the Idu Mishmi festival, fills the town in early February.
What to do
Mehao lake
A forest-ringed high lake, trek-in.
Bhismaknagar
Fort ruins of an early hill kingdom.
