Finish at

Tuting in December

The end of the road at the great bend.

Quick answer. Winter. Snow returns to the high passes; valley circuits run with weather buffers. For Tuting specifically, December is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why December here

The far Upper Siang village below the gorge where the Tsangpo turns, a rafting legend.

Tuting is the road’s end in Upper Siang, below the gorge country where the Tsangpo enters India as the Siang: Memba and Adi villages, expedition-grade whitewater lore, and a frontier stillness that few travellers reach.

What to do
