Why January here
The high Chakhesang town: Glory Peak views, kiwi orchards and real winter air.
Pfutsero, at about 2,100m, is one of the highest and coldest towns in Nagaland: Glory Peak’s sunrise view, kiwi and vegetable farms, and a December cold that feels earned. It is the overnight base for the Zhavame-Kapamodzü circuit.
