Nagaland Trekking Tour

Khonoma Village Experience, after you arrive at the Dimapur Airport, you are driven to the Khonoma Village. It is a typical Naga rural area with a notable history. Currently, this entire region is called the Green Village. Probably amongst the well-known regions in Nagaland, Khonoma shot into fame after its residents displayed valour in resisting the British onset during the colonial days. Chiefly comprised of the Angami tribe, this rural region is located in the Kohima district. The villagers here are environmentally conscious ensuring that this entire region is hygienic, and has proper sanitisation facilities. En route, stop by at the local market if you want to purchase organic vegetables. The trip to the hamlet takes about three hours covering a distance of more than eighty kilometres from the Dimapur airport

On the village tour, see and experience the unique lifestyle of the Nagas. Hunting is second nature to the Nagas and vindicating this fact is the many religious ceremonies based on the hunting theme.

A clan represents a Khel and each of it has its autonomous administrative rules.
