    If you’re heading straight from Itanagar, the most common route is via the NH13 to Bomdila and then a short local taxi hop to the Mechukha Bus Stand. A driver from Awoo Resort in Bomdila can pick you up for a fixed rate, and they know the exact turn at the Mechukha turnpike.

    Flying into Lilabari and driving from there is a bit longer the road to Mechukha is winding and takes roughly four to five hours, so a bus from Itanagar that leaves in the late morning is usually more convenient.

    Since the valley is open 24/7, arriving just after sunrise gives you a quieter walk and cooler temperatures.
