Itinerary at a Glance
Itinerary
Silchar Arrival - Barak Valley Tea Estates and CTC Factory
Arrival at Silchar Airport in Assam's Barak Valley. The afternoon is a guided walk through a British-era tea garden and an operational CTC processing plant. A colonial-era bungalow or a city resort provides the night's stay.
The NH6 Mountain Crossing - Silchar to Kolasib
The day of the great landscape shift - the flat Barak plains give way to bamboo forest gorges on the NH6 mountain crossing. The Vairengte border checkpoint marks the entry into Mizoram. Kolasib, the first Mizoram overnight, sits on a mountain shelf above the Tlawng River gorge.
Driving Up to the Cloud Capital - Kolasib to Aizawl
The 85 km drive south through high pine and bamboo forest ridges delivers guests to Aizawl, the Mizoram capital at 1,132 metres. The afternoon covers the two anchor monuments of the city before an evening walk through Bara Bazar.
Living Heritage and Aizawl Viewpoints
A full day in the Aizawl corridor - Falkawn Cultural Village to the south, then the Luangmual Handicraft Centre, the glass skywalk and Durtlang Viewpoint on the northern ridge, with an evening music cafe.
Reiek Tlang Summit Trek and Farewell Bonfire
The trek day - a 7:30 AM departure west to the Reiek trailhead for the guided 3.5 km ascent to the 1,548 m summit cliff with its sheer valley drop. The afternoon descends through Reiek Heritage Village. A farewell bonfire closes the six-day arc.
Final Breakfast and Lengpui Airport Departure
A relaxed final morning, checkout, and the 30 km descent from the Aizawl ridge to Lengpui Airport through the Tlawng River gorge. The open-jaw circuit ends at Lengpui for flights to Guwahati or Kolkata.
