The small town of Bomdila is perched amongst the panoramic settings of the lofty ranges of the eastern Himalayas. It is a remote destination and like few other Indian towns, it has escaped the virtual tourist invasion in recent times. Bomdila is known for its scenic environs along with its Buddhist monasteries and apple orchids. It also attracts the adventure seeker with its numerous trekking trails.
Tezpur in Assam is the nearest airport. It is best to reach Tezpur (by bus, train or air) and then Bomdila by road. The road to Bomdila isn't very well kept and is extremely bad at a few places. The ride takes nearly 6 hours unless there is a landslide when it takes longer. You can hire a cab, share a cab, or go by bus.
April to October is the best time to visit Bomdila. June is 'summers' in the region, but Bomdila still stays pleasant and the maximum temperature does not rise beyond 30 degrees Celcius. The main monsoon season is between July and September, though the town experiences showers all through the year.
