Tips for Visiting Namdapha National Park#

  • Plan your visit in the dry season (roughly October-March) when tracks are passable and wildlife viewing is better; the monsoon months make trekking difficult.
  • Access is remote - Miao is the usual gateway town and you must arrange permits and an authorised local guide through the forest department before entering the park.
  • Expect basic facilities and rough roads; allow extra travel time, book any park accommodation in advance, and confirm transport with local operators rather than assuming regular public services.
