How to reach Arunachal Pradesh:

Arunachal Pradesh connects important cities, including Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, and others, by road, air, and train. Here’s more about how to get to Arunachal Pradesh:

Via Air:

Currently, there is an airport not in Arunachal Pradesh because of the rugged mountain terrain. Therefore, if you plan on flying there, the Lokapriya Gopinath Bordoloi Airport, located in Guwahati, or Lilabari Airport in North Lakhimpur, Assam, are the two airports that are closest to each. However, Lilabari is the nearest airport to Itanagar, the capital city of Arunachal Pradesh. But Lokapriya Gopinath airport provides more connectivity and better flight frequency.

Via Rail:

Train journeys to this beautiful state in the Northeastern region of India are unforgettable experiences as the train passes through some of the most striking places and awe-inspiring landscapes. The closest railway station is Harmuty which is located about 33 kilometers from Itanagar. Additionally, you can take buses to your preferred Arunachal Pradesh tourist places.

Via Road:

A road trip through Arunachal Pradesh can be awe-inspiring, with breathtaking scenes from an image postcard. The mountain roads that twist and turn with stunning scenery can make for an exciting and picturesque journey. It is possible to get direct buses to Arunachal Pradesh from various towns and cities, such as Nagaon, Tinsukia, Dibrugarh, Jorhat, and Guwahati.

ILP in Arunachal Pradesh:

Arunachal Pradesh falls within a restricted zone. A permit from the government is required for entry into the state. This means that visitors who are not natives of Arunachal Pradesh have to get the Inner Line Permit (ILP) to enter Arunachal Pradesh. After crossing Valukpong and all other locations, such as Dirang, Bomdila, and Tawang in the western region as well as Itanagar within the part of eastern, visitors must present an ILP. A specific permit is required to enter Ziro and other protected or preserved areas. It is called RAP or Restricted Area Permit. You need not take any headache, Tripoventure can arrange that.
