Where there is a will, there is a way. And where there is a hill, adventure is sure to follow. Arunachal, especially the region between Bomdila and Tawang, is a paradise for trekkers and mountaineers. The region is trimmed with magnificent passes and peaks, gurgling rivers and waterfalls, hot springs and picturesque lakes, that surely refreshes every weary soul. One can also spends days, sitting by the shimmering rivulets rich in ‘mahseer’, an extra-ordinary angling to be performed. River rafting on the Siang amidst river dolphins and a medley of water birds can also be an uplifting experience. The tourism department is taking initiatives in establishing an Aerosports Institute in Arunachal, that will entertain tourists with para- and hang- gliding, ballooning, microlight flying etc., all under one roof.
