Mountain Scenery and Trekking in Nagaland

Trekking in Nagaland allows for a breathtaking view of mountainous and river landscapes, lakes and enriching encounters with the mountain dwellers. Everywhere you come across caves, which are explored in the rarest cases, monoliths which are towering over their surroundings and holy places. Interesting rock formations, glittering springs, a kaleidoscope of exotic flowers such as orchids and multicolored rhododendrons characterize the landscape.
