Tawang
Nuranang Falls, locally known as Jung Falls, is a spectacular 100-metre waterfall thundering through a deep river gorge on the route between Bomdila and Tawang. The short hike down to the base of the falls through dense sub-tropical forest is thrilling, and the power and volume of the falls — fed by numerous Himalayan streams — is genuinely awe-inspiring. The falls are also called 'Bap Teng Kang' in the local Monpa language and are considered sacred. A small hydro project nearby harnesses the falls' energy without diminishing its raw beauty.
The path to the falls base is steep — wear grip footwear and take extra care on wet rocks near the plunge pool. The spray zone around the base of the falls makes it feel like standing inside a cool, natural mist machine even on warm days.
