Northeast India for Trekkers
Dzükou for grass valleys, Dzongri for Kanchenjunga, Nongriat for jungle and Saramati for the summit.
Pick your mountain: Dzükou (2,400m) for the classic two-day grass-valley trek from Kohima; Dzongri (13,000ft) for the five-day Kanchenjunga dawn; Singalila for the border-ridge long view; Nongriat for the jungle gorge; and Saramati (3,840m) for Nagaland’s full expedition.
Protected-area treks need permits via registered agencies; season windows are narrow at altitude.
