Day 1

After a warm welcome at the airport, begin your journey into the remote forests of Nagaland. Enter the hills and feel the air cool around you as you venture deeper into the greenery. Your first stop is the village of Kiruphema. Your homestay hosts and a village Elder will greet you and introduce you to your first taste of Naga hospitality. The Elder will entrust you with their wisdom of the lands and culture. After, work with the local blacksmith and share a meal with the villagers, enjoying the simplicity of these lands.

After a locally-made breakfast, bid farewell to your new friends and begin your hike from Kiruphema village to Sechuma village. This 3-hour moderate hike takes you through the uneven gradient of the region. Enjoy the views and clean forest air as you walk in the footsteps of the Naga. Arrive in Sechuma village for a traditional lunch with a local family before continuing to Khonoma. Along the way, you will visit the megalith culture at Mezoma and see the beautiful forest cover and breathtaking views of the terraced fields. End the day with a delicious meal before retiring.

Become captivated by these pristine lands and the creatures that call it home. Then, tour the village buildings as you listen to stories of warriors and the struggles of the Angamis against the British Army. Join local craftsmen who make cane baskets and the women weavers as you interact with the friendly villagers.

Tour the town’s landmarks and visit a private museum to learn about Nagaland during World War II.

Since then the mountain has played an important part in the local history. This moderate hike will take an hour for leisure hikers. At the top, you will be treated to lunch while enjoying the magnificent views from above.
