Day 1

A must visit place for all nature and adventure lover.The best time to visit this place is early June to end of September.The famous dzukou Lily blooms at early June.There are two routes to reach the place.one is Zakhama route and another one is Biswema route.The ascend from Zakhama route is  tougher and harder.If one loves hard core trek and adventure ,then he/she must opt for this route.It's worth the toil.One can get captivating views of dense tropical rain forest over this route.On the other hand,the Biswema route is comparatively easier as it's steep only for a stretch of 45minutes to 1hour.Everybody can more or less access this route quite easily.It takes 6/7hours to reach dzukou point via Zakhama route while via Biswema route it takes 4/5 hours.On Dzukou point there is only one dormitory a..Most of  the time ,it remains overcrowded.The only food ,you can get here is Rice,Dal, Potato Curry and only if the supplies remain continued ,then pork Curry..The food is served on first come first serve basis..It is advisable that one should try to avoid the stay at the overcrowded Dom.. Instead one can stay in a tent on the helipad ground..one could have a marvelous 360 degree view as well as thirlling stay here...In the midst of the night ,one would get goosebumps for sure ,while standing in the cliff with not a single living creature around you..There will be dearth of words to describe this feeling ..You will get perfect thrill of adventure ,and from here one would get the entire view of the valley.The must do here is to visit the valley early in the morning , otherwise your trip will remain incomplete.The valley is just mesmerizing.
