    You’ll find the canyon is usually less crowded before dawn, so the early light gives softer shadows for photos. Bird activity peaks around sunrise, especially the Himalayan blue robin and various warblers, so a quiet walk is rewarding. From the airport a cab takes about an hour to the Laitlum bus stop, then a local bus or shared taxi gets you to the trailhead. If you want a smoother start, staying at Awoo Resort in Bomdila lets the staff arrange a pick up and you’ll have extra time for the early light.
